Mark Avison - Said and Done Lyrics

You stand on the threshold and your bags they're all packed
You've made up your mind so there's no more looking back
You wanted your freedom, you wanted escape
A new life is waiting beyond the cityscape

How many lovers have you broken apart
How many sorrows unconsoled
How many secrets do you hold in your heart untold

I hope you're quite ready for travelling alone
You know that I'm always at the end of a phone
You've burnt all your bridges and sold all your books
A head full of music where nobody looks

How many lessons will you learn on the road
How many sinners will you save
How many handfuls of seeds will you sow and raise

I read all your letters, I've read between lines
I wish I could say that I've found that subtle sign
You say that you're happy, you say that you're strong
A new way of living to play out in a song

How many tunes do you still hold in your head
How many songs remain unsung
How many empty stages when all is said and done
