Long ago on the sands of time We kissed as the stars aligned And nothing had ever felt so right Skinny dipping our love struck hearts In the bleak of the dark night No one else was in sight And did you feel the sand between your toes Did we know the chain of events We had set in motion In the morning we shared more than a moment Naked in my bed, did you enjoy the toast Browsing aquarium next to Rottnest Island The past can be so horrid And now I live in your apartment Far from home Good afternoon passengers Pre-boarding announcement, flight JQ796 to Perth We are now inviting those passengers with small children And any passengers requiring special assistance To begin boarding at this time Please have your boarding pass and identification ready Regular boarding will begin in approximately 10 minutes time Thank you What I miss what I miss A foreign kiss on my lips My fleeing youth my fleeing youth She fled too soon gone with the wind What I miss, what I miss The foreign kiss on my lips My fleeing youth my fleeing youth She fled too soon gone with the wind Everything's changing so rapidly Watching my skin age Its rotting sadly No fine wine yeah I never fine dined Got to find my will to sign Sign my assets and my life Cheap booze Dirt tracks and bad weed I'm missing my crew Does the Russian blue Patrol Those grey streets of tin foil Smokey like the bandit He's gone and bite a rat by the sunset And how's dad's gym going Powerful is his bench press Does mum still ballet in the garage Does my brother still DJ Every Saturday Was it all a mirage A memory not of mine Artificial was it even real Sometimes it feels like I can Barely remember their faces Soon I'll have to bury my dog In her favourite place I used to walk Sasha through Yellagonga's golden bushscape Stuck in this metal raging cityscape No, I can't escape Entrapped to a virus On my knees to pray God Won't you take my Cruel life away What I miss what I miss A foreign kiss on my lips My fleeing youth my fleeing youth She fled too soon gone with the wind What I miss what I miss A foreign kiss on my lips My fleeing youth my fleeing youth She fled too soon gone with the wind We was little kids screwing around on the playground Now we're young adults Saying bye to small town folk How we celebrated When we graduated Those blurry nights have faded And life was looking bright With pride We wore our might Strength and honour We could win the fight Blind sighted youth No we couldn't see the truth In 2021 That's when I moved Searching for my grand purpose On this strange planet I hugged my mother, saluted my father Dabbed up my brother and boarded that plane In storm and rain I flew away I flew away Goodbye to today Kraken bottles littered on the beach Kraken bottles littered on the beach Kraken bottles littered on the beach Kraken bottles littered on the beach Seashells singing songs of my life I was building sandcastles with my wife Let our ghastly dog of it's leash Trapped in a vortex of lucid dreams Time is a god we cannot beat Death is the end we cannot cheat Time is a god we cannot beat Death is the end we cannot cheat In this life or the next Kiss you on the forehead We could be so happy you and me If only we could stop the lords entropy Nostalgia, that is toxic Toxic Yeah, I'm going forward Its what I miss Its what I miss My fleeting youth It fled to soon Gone with the wind
