about

Over time, this has proved to be our most played song. I can only remember one gig we have failed to perform it, and that was because we were cut short.
A lot of our music is very nostalgic.
Growing up is easy, getting older is the problem...

lyrics

Sometimes I think I'm seventeen,
though time's erased most of my memory,
roll back the years to long ago,
I heard a song played on the radio.

Through passing years and changing fashion,
a teenage crush turned into passion,
found excitement everywhere I ran,
adolescent boy becomes a man.

Doc Martens, black leather,
summer seemed to last forever,
having fun and staying out all night,
great records, on vinyl,
seeing my team reach the final,
those were the best years of my life.

Now I must confess to getting older,
and winter always seems much colder,
I watched a film from '83,
and dreamed about the way it used to be.

Doc Martens, black leather,
summer seemed to last forever,
having fun and staying out all night,
great records, on vinyl,
seeing my team reach the final,
those were the best years of my life.
