"Domestic Distortion" lyrics - GLENN TILBROOK

Our ties have been broken, I've pushed you aside somehow
We've lost some years but there's still right here and now
I'm scared to see you, excited and confused
You plucked up the courage to say: 'I want to meet with you'.

I'm guilty and fearful but we begin to click
As we discover the things that make us tick
Checking our baggage, sharing our points of view
It's time to grow up and get to grips with you.

Sliding from the shadows of our domestic distortion
Uncertainty has been the only thing I'm sure of
My feelings are elusive, somewhere that I just will not go
Now we're on a journey, where it ends I don't know.

You say you've got a partner now and you have settled down
You've both had a little baby boy so I'm a granddad now.

It's a bit of a shock and it's big news to me
I've got a problem with responsibility
The past is a closed book which I fucked up for you
And I'm really sorry that I didn't have a clue.

I've love for you somewhere but I can't guarantee
That our future will turn out any differently.

Sliding from the shadows of our domestic distortion
Uncertainty has been the only thing I'm sure of
My feelings are elusive, somewhere that I just will not go
Now we're on a journey, where it ends I don't know.
