Hopes Go Astray by The Northern Pikes Lyrics

Just write a letter and mail it to yourself
Read it out loud but to no-one else
Pick your pocket, a measure of time
Never leave those memories behind
And you'll sing 'til tomorrow
And the days that will follow
But it's never the same
When you feel you're insane
On the bed where you lay
There's a plan that was made
But it's never the same
When your hopes go astray
Just write a memo and hang it on your wall
A small reminder of why you're here at all
So look around and groove to the sound
Let's see those feet rise up from the ground
And you'll sing 'til tomorrow
And the days that will follow
But it's never the same
When you feel you're insane
On the bed where you lay
There's a plan that was made
But it's never the same
When your hopes go astray
Now the princess washes dishes
She's done more harm than any good
I am the witness of hugs and kisses
Loneliness is never understood
So paint a picture of things that aren't real
Remember shame when it's time to kneel
And don't forget the things that you say
Could all come back to you some other day
And you'll sing 'til tomorrow
And the days that will follow
But it's never the same
When you feel you're insane
On the bed where you lay
There's a plan that was made
But it's never the same
When your hopes go astray
