Ten Foot Pole
Old Man

you tell me of a place
where everybody knew their neighbours
all the families helped each other
and no one ever locked their doors
you told me no one locked their doors

old man please stay a while
i know at first i seemed too busy
but now i'll make the time
stay and tell me one more story

tell me about the time
you ditched school to go fishing
you thought the branch would hold
your neighbour pulled you from the river
he helped you wash your clothes
and stich the hole in your trousers
and your mum never knew why
he giggled when he saw you

old man please stay a while
i know at first i seemed too busy
but now i'll make the time
stay and tell me one more story

a place where no one locks their doors
a place where no one locks their doors
you tell me that you show me
only now it is too late
i like to built community
only now it is too late
things will never be the way they were before
you can't go back to how things were before
once the trust is gone
once the trust is gone
once the trust is gone you lock the door

i can imagine that life
but it seems so far from real
it's just like a story
that's the kind of life i've never known

old man you're leaving now
taking with you things i've never known
i wonder where you're going
and if it would be like your old home

i hope you'll find the place you're looking for
i hope you'll find the place you're looking for
i hope you'll find
i hope you'll find
i hope you'll find the place you're looking for


Mirror lyrics:

i hope you'll find the place you're looking for
i hope you'll find
i hope you'll find
i hope you'll find the place you're looking for
i hope you'll find the place you're looking for

and if it would be like your old home
i wonder where you're going
taking with you things i've never known
old man you're leaving now

that's the kind of life i've never known
it's just like a story
but it seems so far from real
i can imagine that life

once the trust is gone you lock the door
once the trust is gone
once the trust is gone
you can't go back to how things were before
things will never be the way they were before
only now it is too late
i like to built community
only now it is too late
you tell me that you show me
a place where no one locks their doors
a place where no one locks their doors

stay and tell me one more story
but now i'll make the time
i know at first i seemed too busy
old man please stay a while

he giggled when he saw you
and your mum never knew why
and stich the hole in your trousers
he helped you wash your clothes
your neighbour pulled you from the river
you thought the branch would hold
you ditched school to go fishing
tell me about the time

stay and tell me one more story
but now i'll make the time
i know at first i seemed too busy
old man please stay a while

you told me no one locked their doors
and no one ever locked their doors
all the families helped each other
where everybody knew their neighbours
you tell me of a place
