Footprints Lyrics by Squeeze

The Complete BBC Sessions

0

[Verse 1]
I spent too much money, looked far too glad
Now I have so little of what I once had
I had too many parties, I had too much time
I got so lazy and fell well behind

[Chorus]
Now the summer is over, I can count the cost
Footprints on the beaches are now
Footprints in the frost
The summer is over, I can count the cost
Footprints on the beaches are now
Footprints in the frost

[Verse 2]
We did so much damage deep in our insides
The party's over, it's going home time
The cathedral is empty, no one's at home
Winter's approaching; paradise postponed

[Chorus]
Now the summer is over, I can count the cost
Footprints on the beaches are now
Footprints in the frost
Rain won't stop falling and the people look lost
Footprints on the beaches are now
Footprints in the frost

[Verse 3]
I rang lots of numbers and walked many miles
I watched the Flintstones and I turned my dial
To a brand new station where the beat comes in
Now it's all over, the winter begins

[Chorus]
The summer is over I can count the cost
Footprints on the beaches are now
Footprints in the frost
People with umbrellas disappear in the fog
Footprints on the beaches are now
Footprints in the frost

[Outro]
Oh, in the frost
Oh, in the frost
