When I came on William Bailey he was running down the stairs
then the homefires now are burning and the chimney needs repairs
And I thought of something that I used to sing
Looking back and loving everything
And I'm sure the grown up faces were familiar to you then
Like the huneysuckle places I (??) on the wind
And the old man, he would let us drive his car
Running home and seeing my guitar
And I hope it made a difference and I hope I got it right
And I hope that I'll be good enough tonight
And I know it makes a difference, and I know it bloody should
And I know it when you let it get so good
Get so good, la, la la la, la la la la
If I trade in all my inocense and left you with the change
Well I never recall telling anyone to feel the same
But I know that if I'm coming out this year
That ain't gonna be much more than fear
And I hope it made a difference and I hope I got it right
And I hope that I'll be good enough tonight
And I know it makes a difference, and I know it bloody should
And I know it when you let it get so good
Get so good, la, la la la, la la la la
