Words and music by Julian Pugsley

lyrics

Something More

In an old fashioned house
There’s a beautiful lady
And she dances alone in the night
And her hair it is grey
And her heart it is broken
And she clutches the picture frame tight

In a tenement block
Lives an unpublished writer
And he’s typing the tale of his life
And he thinks of the dreams
That he had as a young man
And he thinks of his wonderful wife

In a flat with two rooms
There’s a struggling mother
And she cries to herself every day
In a temporary home
There’s a man drinking cider
Cos he knows that there’s no other way

In a respectable house
There’s a frightened young woman
And she waits for her husband’s return
In another abode
A child can’t wake its parents
And this time they’ll remain unconcerned

And within these four walls
Are the thousands of stories
Playing out every day behind closed doors
And if we spared a thought
For the weak and the lonely
Then perhaps we would do something more
Then perhaps we would do something more
