Evidence

Written by Sid Griffin

Photographs of tawdry seasides

Epitaphs of morning’s b-side

All my time with you

All my time with you

A china cup which cracked a sliver

A view of two across the river

Is what remains of you

Is evidence it’s true

A paper bell with a clapped out clacker

A tangerine by a stale salt cracker

Where on earth are you?

Where on earth are you?

Evidence it’s true

Of how I once loved you

Evidence it’s true

Of how I once loved you

Time takes its time

Then it tears us in two

A wave goodbye on a sunlit day

Clouds rolled by but they didn’t stay

And I remembered you

And all my time with you

A soft-lit dance ‘cross a ballroom floor

A quiet kiss in a disco’s door

Is what remains of you

Evidence it’s true

Evidence it’s true

Of how I once loved you

Evidence it’s true

Of how I once loved you

Time takes its time

Then it tears us in two

The smell of sea air on a lonely evening

You cried the time that I was leaving

A world away from you

A world away from you

A motor started and I heard you running

What was the song that you were humming?

Evidence it’s true

Is what remains of you

Time takes its time

Then it tears us in two
