"It's fair to compare this to New Years Resolution as it's lyrically about the same kind of subject. Looking back at your past. But it's also about how you have to learn to accept the person you're growing into and try and make the best of what you've got. The 'Do you remember.....' section is where I took the Title for the E.P from, and it's about a few occasions which I will not be shedding any light on! They're 'Inside Jokes' as it were!"
lyrics
Verse: I've got a lot of growing up to do. Still got a lot of days to get through. Only 20 years down the line. Still got a lot of things on my mind. I'm still going to sing about love and write about when we were young. There isn't anything holding me back. To look back on the things we've done.
Chorus: It's funny how the world turns round when we're still in the same place.
How the years pass from first to last but this town doesn't seem to change.
The cover's old, the pages fold but the story never ends.
And when I look past my Airs and Graces, i've still got my family and friends.
Verse: I've got twenty quid in my wallet. I've got this pick in my pocket. This old guitar here in my hands. I'm never too far from it. These songs stand the test of my time. These words will make or break my life. Whether I get all or none. I will just take it as it comes.
Chorus: It's funny how the world turns round when we're still in the same place.
How the years pass from first to last but this town doesn't seem to change.
The cover's old, the pages fold but the story never ends.
And when I look past my Airs and Graces, i've still got my family and friends.
Middle 8: Can we make amends, If we stay selfish men? Look at the times we spent.
Oh do you remember?
The new years when we waited for two hours but the bus didn't come, oh well!
Or that night in Cambridge where we laid waste to Mc Donalds and the Plaza Hotel.
There were so many nights that we had to fight to make the best of the worst.
So get in the car 'cause I'm driving out!
Chorus: The cover's old, the pages fold but the story never ends.
And when I look past my Airs and Graces, i've still got my family and friends.
