Gone Fishing

lyrics

Remember when we tried to catch a fish
We had nothing but a piece of line attached to a stick
We dipped in the river and waited hours for a bite
Still we didn't catch that fish

We didn't have a piece of bait
Just put the line in and sat there and talked while we waited
There was probably no fish in the river, or its cos we didn't have the bait
but still we waited for that fish

And at the time we hated it
We always complained that
we were wasting our time, always wasting our time

Friend, we moved on from that world
Lost communication between jobs, between girls
But now I'm sat here in my room, looking for something to do
Remembering time well spent when
I was wasting it with you

Remember when we used to go to school
We'd sit in classrooms hiding from teachers in the hall
Hoping that they would never find us cos we didn't want to go
Those classes always were so slow

And at the time we hated it
We always complained that
we were wasting our time, always wasting our time

Friend, we moved on from that world
Lost communication between jobs, between girls
But now I'm sat here in my room, looking for something to do
Remembering time well spent when
I was wasting it with you

All the people I don't remember
That horrible feeling in September
Didn't go away until November, remember?

All the things we said we'd regret
Doing things that I can't forget
I didn't realise until we left
How much fun we had back then

Remember when we tried to catch a fish
There was no hoping in hell because that fish does not exist
But all the things we spoke about, all the stories been and gone
I'm always waiting for that fish

Friend, we moved on from that world
Lost communication between jobs, between girls
But now I'm sat here in my room, looking for something to do
Remembering time well spent when
I was wasting it with
Friends, we moved on from that world
Lost communication between jobs, between girls
But now I'm sat here in my room, looking for something to do
Remembering time well spent when
I was wasting it friends
