Paul Colman Album: The Band Thing Track: The Reunion
The Reunion Lyrics
I got an invitation mama poked it under my door This castle's my fortress these four walls
Seems we been invited To justify the things we've done Been invited to my high school reunion
And I walked through the door there's Sarah She still wears her smile like a party invitation She's just older and sadder She carries suitcases under her eyes
I'm standing empty handed Have grown or did I slide? Childhood's such a great time Shame to waste it on a child
And I stare at the door Mr Baker he died The man I cursed he was my history teacher Right now I'd like to ask him his middle name And the names of his children Mr Baker I'm a history teacher
I stand face to face with you You're my enemy my maitre de You buried in my head And coloured all the things I've said But its time to take your head And never settle down to running around Rejection, rejection I bind your name I bind your name
So I took my invitation And the freedom that I'd won And I headed from high school reunion
