Politics & Beer

[Verse 1]
In the days when you
Believed in us, too
We were confident in what we could do
Kings both for a day
Our work more like play
We thought we'd arrived
And that we'd stay

[Verse 2]
Though we might have seen
Like cats who'd got the cream
We drifted apart
Into separate dreams
Our train of course derailed
By increments we failed
No wind left to speak off
In our sails

[Chorus]
Politics and Beer
A gulf between us clear
We let common ground
For too many years
So much left un-said
Silencе reigned instead
I nеver knew what was going on
In your head

[Verse 3]
So the litmus test
We need to address
Please just tell the truth
I don't want to guess
Open at high noon
The last chance saloon
Let's meet up and have a talk
In there soon

[Verse 4]
There's nothing left to fear
We can bend each other's ears
Easy now to laugh
We've stepped up a gear
It's real now not pretend
It's the middle not the end
Now I count myself again
As your friend
