Darren Hayes - A Hundred Challenging Things A Boy Can Do
It was a coal town.
He spent his whole life
In a hole in the ground-
Smashing pieces of earth.
He never really saw the sky.
It was a hard life,
But little black rocks make televisions work,
And put food on the table.
Until the unions cast him aside.
Now there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do.
And you've waved goodbye,
And held more tears in-
Than anyone ever should.
And all my sorrows pale to insignificance-
That's why I love you.
She was in a strange land.
She taught herself to read
From doing crosswords and hiding her accent.
She cast her dreams aside.
She had a spark in her eye.
She never saw her son on his wedding day.
Or our cherry blossoms falling down from the sky.
Now there's a hundred challening things a boy can do.
And you've waved goodbye,
And held more tears in-
Than anyone ever should.
And all my sorrow pales to insignificance-
That's why I love you.
No coal mines-
No, not a trace.
Now shopping malls take their place.
No picket lines.
The sacrifice-
Dreams overrun.
Hopes for a future for her son in Ollerton.
And there's a hundred challenging things a boy can do.
And you've waved goodbye,
And held more tears in-
Than anyone ever should.
All my sorrows pale into insignificance-
That's why she loves you.
Wave goodbye-
Wave goodbye.
Say goodbye to you.
Wave goodbye-
Wave goodbye.
Say goodbye to you.
