Lamppost 49 Lyrics

'Mon, let's head on

If you're looking to get out of here

I know just where we can go

Quick, though you're sick

And you're searching for a remedy

I have one, so don't say no

I'm a hopeless heartbreaker I'm told

Paralysed by fear of growing old

But not if I've got you beside me

I think we'll get on

I see our names in picture frames

Stay, hope and pray

That the circus saves a spot for you

Or run like we've always done

Please be at ease

There's just one more hoop to jump through

Then it's over, the battle's won

I'm a hopeless heartbreaker I'm told

Paralysed by fear of growing old

But not if I've got you beside me

I think we'll get on

I see our names in picture frames

Take a walk at night and sit by lamppost forty-nine

Everyone who sat there said that they were fine

All of them were people living lives not unlike mine

Open eyes can't see lies
