Did You Have A Nice Life Without Me?
It seems so long, so many years,
Since that old school song echoed in my ears.
You made plans - I played in a Band.
You wanted flowers an walks in the park,
I wanted sound-checks and getting up after dark.
You made plans - I played in a Band.
Did you marry anyone? Have you got some sprogs?
Did you buy a big house? Have you got a pet dog?
Did it all turn out how you wanted it to be?
Did you have a nice life without me?
We were young, I didn't understand.
Life was fun, no time for making plans.
You made plans - I played in a Band.
Did you marry anyone? Have you got some sprogs?
Did you buy a big house? Have you got a pet dog?
Did it all turn out how you wanted it to be?
Did you have a nice life without me?
Your friends all wanted "our tunes" and school run 4 x 4's
And my friends all booked their honeymoons.
And bought their wedding cakes
My friends just got in the way.
Your mum said "give him the elbow, he's running your life"
And my mum said "you'd make a lovely wife".
Your brother told me "piss off or he'd knock me down the stairs" -
What a love affair.
Then our dreams grew up and went their separate ways.
Two young lovers - a lifetime away
You made plans - I played in a Band.
Did you marry anyone? Have you got some sprogs?
Did you buy a big house? Have you got a pet dog?
Did it all turn out how you wanted it to be?
Did you have a nice life without me?
