1989

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1: John Gourley]

I was born in 1989

All we could do

No shakes or coughs or burst relief

Or lists of all our things

Just minutes making minds

I was born in 1989

All we could do

But the making never made

The comers never came

But I still felt that awful news

[Chorus: John Gourley & Zoe Manville]

It was patience that we had

And the miles that we had left

That held us there

Until we could let go

[Verse 2: John Gourley]

I was born in 1989

And it'll be over soon

No moon children or people's sun

No ringing in my ears

When I still felt that awful news

[Chorus: John Gourley & Zoe Manville]

It was patience that we had

And the miles that we had left

That held us there

Until we could let go

It was patience that we had

And the miles that we had left

That held us there

Until we could let go

(If our hearts would ever come around)

[Bridge: John Gourley, Gang Vocals & Zoe Manville]

I was born in 1989

All we could do

Not in birth or body

Only in our minds, in our minds

Not in birth or body

And I... I still felt that awful news

[Chorus: John Gourley & Zoe Manville]

It was patience that we had

And the miles that we had left

That held us there

Until we could let go

It was patience that we had

And the miles that we had left

That held us there

Until we could let go

(If our hearts would ever come around)
