Earlier versuri

Earlier lyrics by The Cat And Mouse Band

You said we’d start early
Well, I didn’t think you meant half past three
On the Tuesday before the decade ends
Hell, that takes in more than an unforeseen eventuality

I know we missed a train (it was partly my fault)
Once back in 1973
You had to wait twenty minutes (you forgot your suitcase)
It made you really angry
You said, „I told you, we should’ve left a little earlier!”

Now you’re fanatical
And you desire not to be late
You planned Xmas in April
Well, I would rather wait

You said we’d start early
But I didn’t quite understand
Your perception of time travel
You arrive before you land

I know we missed a train (it was partly my fault)
Once back in 1973
You never let me forget it (you forgot to think ?)
You never failed to remind me
Consequently, we leave a decade or two earlier
