Madness

The Rise and Fall

Madness


These are the streets I used to walk 
On summer nights, sit out and talk 
That's the house where I used to live 
I remember what I would give. 

This is the town I won't forget 
And after anger there's nothing left 
Walking now round and round 
Familiar sights are open ground. 

Being here again 
I can recall 
Forgotten moments 
The rise and fall. 

We used to live where children play 
They leave their homes a mile away 
To come and stand in trees and grass 
Where we once walked the memories last. 

Being here again 
I can recall 
Forgotten moments 
The rise and fall. 

The sun shines east, the sun shines west 
But I know where the sun shines best 
Casey street in the afternoon 
Once again it's over too soon. 

Being here again 
I can recall 
Forgotten moments 
The rise and fall. 

Being here again 
I can recall 
Forgotten moments 
The rise and fall. 

Rise 
(Rise) 
(Rise) 

Rise and fall
