Intro

Verse

There's no mistake, I smell that smell, it's that time of year

 again, I can taste the air

 Clock goes back, railway track, something blocks the line

 again, and the train runs late for the first time

A pebal beach, underneath, pier just been painted

red, where I heard the news for the first time

Chorus

And all the friends lay down the flowers

 Sit on the banks and drink for hours

 Talk of the way they saw him last

 Local boy in the photograph

Today

Verse

He'll always be 23, yet the train runs on and on

 Past the place they found his clothing

x3

There's no mistake, I smell that smell, it's that time of year

 again, I can taste the air

Clock goes back, railway track, something blocks the line

again, and the train runs late for the first time

Today

Chorus

And all the friends lay down the flowers

 Sit on the banks and drink for hours

 Talk of the way they saw him last

 Local boy in the photograph

Today

He's gone away
