I recall
A schoolboy coming home
Through fields of cane
To a house of tin and timber
And in the sky
A rain of falling cinders
From time to time
The waste, memory wastes
REPEAT MAIN RIFF x2
I recall
A boy in bigger pants
Like everyone
Just waiting for a chance
His father's watch
He left it in the showers
From time to time
The waste, memory wastes
And the waste, memory wastes
REPEAT MAIN RIFF x4
I recall
A bigger brighter world
A world of books
And silent times in thought
And then the railroad
The railroad takes him home
Through fields of cattle
Through fields of cane
From time to time
The waste, memory wastes
And the waste, memory wastes
