about

Song about long dead writer of the "Go-Between". Also suitable for fans of hit 90's sitcom "Blossom"!

lyrics

"The past is a foreign country they do thing's differently there."

There's a place that I want you to see.
It's called the past. Won't you come along with me.
It's a foreign country and they do things so differently.
At least according to L.P. Hartley.

In the past blossom's always on the tree's.
In my past Blossom's always on t.v.
Something bout that Six chick just does it for me
Anyway enough about her this songs meant to be about L.P. Hartley

It's a beautiful time but you cannot go back.
You're a different person now and you have to face that fact.
It's a beautiful place but it's a place in time.
It isn't there anymore yeah it has been left behind.

In a travelling grave in a Knightsbridge cemetery.
Lay the bones of a man who helped me to see.
(Actually he was cremated) but that's between you and me.
Anyway, R.I.P. L.P.
R.I.P. L.P.
