Madness - The Rise and Fall lyrics

These are the streets I used to walk

On summer nights, sit out and talk

That's the house where I used to live

I remember what I would give.

This is the town I won't forget

And after anger there's nothing left

Walking now round and round

Familiar sights are open ground.

Being here again

I can recall

Forgotten moments

The rise and fall.

We used to live where children play

They leave their homes a mile away

To come and stand in trees and grass

Where we once walked the memories last.

Being here again

I can recall

Forgotten moments

The rise and fall.

The sun shines east, the sun shines west

But I know where the sun shines best

Casey street in the afternoon

Once again it's over too soon.

Being here again

I can recall

Forgotten moments

The rise and fall.

Being here again

I can recall

Forgotten moments

The rise and fall.

Rise

(Rise)

(Rise)

Rise and fall

Rise and fall
