lyrics

When the clocks go back and the cold sets in
and the gloom consumes where the week begins
your laugh is a spark to live for
a stay on darker days
the warmth in conversation
cuts across the tired haze

Enough sometimes to recognise
the better man you see in me
Enough sometimes to realise
the change can happen gradually

Through the hours of work with the same fatigue
jumping hoops for fools we can never please
there's still these notes between us
simple and sincere
to fight the spent resentment
the sense we're still stuck here

Enough sometimes to recognise
the better friend you've been to me
Enough sometimes to realise
It's not as bad as it used to be

As the night draw nears
And the crowds push by
And the panic of the city
settles into a sigh
I start to consider
the bigger picture
the people who keep me
through the bleak midwinter
enough sometimes to recognise
enough sometimes to realise
