I have a love, and it never fades
From red garden sheds
To watching lads on steds knocking heads.
From the 2x2 f*ck you punk stage
To a warehouse rave, with a bloke we met on the way
Dancing til day.
I have a love, and it never fades
Full of plights and gripes, like Achilles
Who loves fights.
Like you did, right?
And we did, twice.
I will love you beyond life.
I have a love, and it never fades
You are God's son across the belly,
Remembered by pictures on your telly.
Your body laying in its glow.
Surrounded by those you know.
Crying for you words, and your soul.
And the final loss of your glimmer of hope,
That we heard every time that ya spoke,
And choked up rooms, and blocks, and venues,
And lads and mots, with words that spoke soft of those lost,
Now we send you off on funeral cloth.
I have a love, and it never fades.
From the space where we learned to be brave,
And face guards, grief, and knaves.
And late days that could shame and break saints,
With the weight of the city's hate from the smothering state.
Every cent we could take,
Went on the art that we'd make.
We'd go straight through the day on a rake of empty plates.
Up to 8 of us poolin ten quid to make something great.
So our love will never fade.
Our love will never fade.
I have a love, and it never fades.
Now a long way from school days,
Sharing books at big break.
With the two of us, and Barry and Craig,
Talking tunes and poems with too much weight for our age.
But the love that remains would shape the memory that stays.
Even now I can see your face when those chords are replayed.
Arm around me shoulder in teenage embrace.
Tell All Your Friends, I'd say.
And a year ago or so,
I played this song for you on the car stereo in the night's breeze.
This bit kicked in with it's synths and its keys,
And you smiled as ya sat next to me.
You in the front, Gilly in the backseat going ninety to the sounds as we roared down the street.
The other boys stompin feet, and me in utter disbelief at the joy from the break in the beats.
We got out and stood, by the Kia Rio caged stage,
And I felt like I had it all.
I have a love, and it will never fade,
And either will you, Paul.

I have a love, and it never fades
From red garden sheds
To watching lads on steds knocking heads.
From the 2x2 f*ck you punk stage
To a warehouse rave, with a bloke we met on the way
Dancing til day.
I have a love, and it never fades
Full of plights and gripes, like Achilles
Who loves fights.
Like you did, right?
And we did, twice.
I will love you beyond life.
I have a love, and it never fades
You are God's son across the belly,
Remembered by pictures on your telly.
Your body laying in its glow.
Surrounded by those you know.
Crying for you words, and your soul.
And the final loss of your glimmer of hope,
That we heard every time that ya spoke,
And choked up rooms, and blocks, and venues,
And lads and mots, with words that spoke soft of those lost,
Now we send you off on funeral cloth.
I have a love, and it never fades.
From the space where we learned to be brave,
And face guards, grief, and knaves.
And late days that could shame and break saints,
With the weight of the city's hate from the smothering state.
