[00:00.00] 作词 : - [00:01.00] 作曲 : - [00:29.57]‘Everybody Down! [00:30.79]He’ll be here in a second, I reckon’ [00:32.88]And Becky beckoned them round [00:34.35]And made them get on their knees [00:35.17]Behind the bar [00:36.78]They held their breath [00:37.24]And stifled giggles [00:37.90]Crouched down [00:38.58]Like a twenty-headed beast [00:39.42]That writhed and wriggled [00:40.47]‘Happy Birthday, Pete! [00:42.05]Another year older, eh?’ [00:43.29]‘I never expected a thing [00:44.63]I don’t know what to say.’ [00:46.00]Harry couldn’t look at the way [00:47.41]Pete held Becky’s hands [00:48.71]Still he passed him a beer and said [00:50.06]‘Well, there you go, big man.’ [01:02.70]‘Harry, this is Ron [01:03.59]Ron, this is Harry, my brother [01:05.69]You guys should really talk to one another [01:07.70]Ron runs the caff and [01:09.43]Harry’s starting up a place up of his own if he can.’ [01:12.08]They raised their glasses up [01:13.52]‘Good to meet you, Ron.’ [01:14.64]‘Ah, pleasure’s all mine.’ [01:15.72]Ron looks into Harry’s eyes and recognises how they shine [01:18.38]Harry. He says the name to himself [01:21.26]Before he’s led away and introduced to someone else [01:30.21]‘Becky, this is Dale,’ [01:30.92]Pete’s drunk now, warm inside [01:32.09]Dale’s awkward with a sort of [01:33.78]Distorted and cautious pride on his face [01:35.58]‘Actually, we’ve met’ [01:36.83]‘Really? I’m sorry,’ says Becky [01:38.20]‘Don’t pretend that you forgot me already?’ [01:40.28]‘Where’d you meet?’ says Pete [01:41.73]Big smile, white teeth [01:43.32]‘She was working, you remember [01:44.80]It was you that made me ring her?’ [01:45.97]It hits Pete, like a fist [01:48.03]Where every finger wears a ring [01:49.64]He couldn’t blink or breathe or think or anything [01:51.84]‘Yeah, you remember? [01:52.56]The twenty-third of November [01:54.40]I met you in the Hotel Hacienda [01:55.96]We had a couple drinks [01:58.42]You knew the bartender [01:59.70]You had a Whisky Sour [02:00.95]And I had a Monumenta [02:02.66]We went up in the lift [02:03.81]They was playing Enya [02:05.06]That made you laugh [02:06.52]You said that Enya sent ya round the bend [02:08.56]Pete was scared that you’d been sleeping with men [02:10.45]So he asked me to investigate [02:11.83]Now, in your defense [02:13.13]You was very professional [02:14.85]I was very tense [02:16.06]But I have to say my favorite part [02:17.76]Was the Happy End.’ [02:30.10]Ron was in the toilets, washing his hands [02:32.41]When he heard what sounded like a man [02:33.75]Sniffing a whole gram [02:35.25]In one go [02:35.97]Harry walked out of the cubicle, ‘Oh! [02:37.77]Alright, Ron?’ [02:39.36]Ron tapped his nose [02:40.77]‘You ain’t got a spare line?’ [02:42.15]Harry smiled, ‘No sweat.’ [02:43.32]Handed him the wrap and said, ‘I’m going for a cigarette [02:46.22]I’ll meet you at the bar, mine’s a pint of Sea View.’ [02:48.71]Ron only had to look at the coke [02:50.45]And he knew [03:02.26]She was dumbstruck [03:03.30]She could feel herself going numb [03:04.69]Clutched thumbs in her fists [03:06.61]Felt unstuck [03:07.67]‘This is wrong! [03:08.65]**** this!’ [03:09.46]Her stomach heaved [03:10.71]‘You set me up [03:11.96]Instead of just talking to me? [03:13.13]What about trust?’ [03:14.73]Guts twisted [03:15.79]Pete was stuck to the spot, his lips shifted [03:18.16]He couldn’t make a sound [03:19.59]Dale stood still, calm [03:21.66]Pete stared dumb [03:22.89]Reached out, touched her arm [03:25.50]She shook it off [03:26.05]So livid, so hurt [03:27.07]She walked away without saying another word [03:29.72]He was about to follow [03:31.05]But saw Dale hiding a smile [03:32.60]Then he couldn’t help it [03:34.22]He saw red, he went wild [03:40.84]‘Alright, look, son [03:41.57]I know we’ve come to have a party [03:43.32]So have a couple of drinks [03:44.85]And a dance with your auntie [03:46.25]But hear this [03:47.14]Let’s clear this up right now [03:48.73]Your numbers are up, son [03:50.32]I have found you out [03:51.66]You don’t know who I work for [03:53.84]Men who have hurt more [03:55.09]Men than the world wars [03:56.43]When you were first born [03:57.97]They were killing men who were worth more [04:00.03]Than ten of your kind [04:01.04]Are you out of your mind? [04:02.78]Look, don’t worry, son [04:04.18]I’m in no hurry, son [04:05.50]I’ll have you on the run [04:06.48]Like a funny curry, son [04:08.08]Go back inside and make sure [04:09.93]Your brother’s having fun [04:10.76]Just know this: [04:11.86]Any day now, I’ll be coming son.’ [04:22.94]Becky ran out to the street feeling weak [04:23.03]She took a breath [04:24.33]Heart slamming its head against the wall of her chest [04:26.96]She looked to her left [04:28.09]Saw Ron, shoulders squared [04:29.32]Talking to Harry [04:30.93]Harry looked awkward, scared [04:32.86]‘What’s this, mother’s meeting? [04:33.94]Come on, Harry, need your help.’ [04:35.08]She walked him off as Ron watched [04:37.00]Harry felt himself melt [04:38.09]‘Becky,’ he began [04:39.51]But he couldn’t finish [04:40.71]He fiddled with a cigarette [04:42.09]Held it between his fingers [04:43.46]‘What’s up?’ [04:44.18]She didn’t need to ask, she could feel it there [04:45.85]‘You got yourself in trouble with my Uncle?’ [04:48.18]‘Yeah’ [04:49.30]He stared at the skyline [04:50.35]He tried find the right words [04:51.68]‘I gotta leave town [04:52.92]And tonight at the latest.’ [04:54.21]They stopped walking, turned [04:55.60]Looked into each other’s faces [04:56.86]‘And I want you to come with me.’ [04:58.50]Time stopped [04:59.27]Harry waited [05:01.81]She said nothing [05:02.47]She raised her eyebrows [05:03.96]Like he did on the night they met [05:06.16]In this way they spoke at length [05:09.21]And his heart heard what her eyes said [05:12.34]He said nothing [05:13.64]He just felt and hoped that he was understood [05:17.41]Then she felt something in her melt [05:20.01]And lightning flashed and thunder shook [05:22.98]He stared at her until she heard him [05:24.61]Felt an energy go surging through her person [05:25.87]Something in his eyes [05:27.27]She felt her body bursting [05:28.47]She kissed him [05:29.31]And it reached a part of her that had been sleeping [05:31.18]And she felt his heart beating in her own [05:32.93]She felt complete and so known [05:34.13]They didn’t speak [05:35.16]Ran down the street [05:36.56]Leon had the motor running [05:37.83]And they jumped in the back seat [05:39.15]Becky felt peace when she looked at his face [05:41.64]‘Lets us three get on a plane and open up Harry’s Place’ [05:44.85]He stared at her, ‘Really?’ [05:46.16]She nodded, his pulsed raced [05:47.35]He reached down beside him [05:49.06]Brought out a suitcase [05:50.08]Stuffed full of cash [05:51.65]Leon smiled at them both [05:52.78]‘Let’s ****ing do it,’ He said [05:54.67]Away they drove [06:01.37]Dale and Pete [06:01.92]Were in a pile of trainers and feet [06:03.54]Clenched fists and black eyes and chipped teeth [06:06.37]Their dads had tried [06:07.62]To get in-between them [06:09.36]It was like they couldn’t wait to get involved [06:11.53]Graham was beating David’s skull with his elbows [06:13.37]David was kneeing Graham’s nether regions [06:15.64]And Miriam was at the bar weeping [06:17.42]Ron was pleased as punch [06:18.98]With the outcome of the evening [06:20.32]While Becky, Harry and Leon headed for the beyond [06:23.91]Off to Dover for the ferry [06:25.06]And from there, wherever [06:26.08]Harry looked at Becky [06:27.22]‘Let’s feel this way forever?’ [06:28.75]Off to Dover for the ferry [06:31.05]And from there, wherever [06:31.67]Harry looked at Becky, said [06:32.22]‘Let’s feel this way forever!’
