Grasp
younger days gone from your grasp
routine and dreams kept in a flask
younger days like a tall ship
i will sail with a cargo of junk
you hold onto me
and we are already sunk
younger days like a merry-go-round
the funfair is closed
but no need to feel so down
younger days gone from your grasp
James Garratt – Friday 1st September 2000
