Used to Be A Lovely Boy Lyrics
Time to leave this town
now your dreams have all let you down,
No one here will miss you now,
Time to wake up and look around.
He used to be a lovely boy,
lovely boy, lovely boy.
He used to be a lovely boy.
Turn away and turn a head,
just a hopeless dreamer she said,
Eyes of cloud and feet of lead,
find a shore that needs you instead.
He used to be a lovely boy,
lovely boy, lovely boy.
He used to be a lovely boy.
Time on your hands,
world at your feet,
no adventure left incomplete.
(Scatting)
Find a place where you can hide
from the love that holds you inside,
time's so unkind,
like an old friend leaves you behind.
He used to be a lovely boy,
lovely boy, lovely boy.
He used to be a lovely boy.
Time on your hands
now your dreams have all let you down,
No one here will miss you now,
Time to wake up and look around.
lovely boy, lovely boy.
He used to be a lovely boy.
just a hopeless dreamer she said,
Eyes of cloud and feet of lead,
find a shore that needs you instead.
lovely boy, lovely boy.
He used to be a lovely boy.
world at your feet,
no adventure left incomplete.
from the love that holds you inside,
time's so unkind,
like an old friend leaves you behind.
lovely boy, lovely boy.
He used to be a lovely boy.

I think this song is about Tom Chaplin (lead singer) It seems like Tim writes a lot of songs about him and their relationship and that sort of thing. But I think that the lyrics are pretty self-explanitory. Lovely song
