Ages

by Morrissey

15 years of precious time behind us
7 years before our child is gone
Everything precariously balanced
The slightest breath can turn it upside down
CHORUS:
And it took us ages
To create
And we fill up the pages
Take it down in a day
Take it down in a day
In a day you smell the turn of summer
In a day the winter had begun
In a day I became your lover
In the morning all this will be gone
CHORUS
15 years of precious time behind us
7 years before our child is gone
Everything precariously balanced
The slightest breath can turn it upside down
CHORUS
