The Futureheads - News and Tributes lyrics
[The Futureheads - News and Tributes lyrics]
Cut down in their prime in silence
On that day, February '58
They got what they'd need
From Belgrade and back home to sleep
More than a name to millions
What could've been changed
By all the boys leaving Munich on that day
The snow came and sent them to sleep
This fall was greater than them all
News and tributes come leaking in
As all eyes turn to Europe
I'd forgotten the sadness in
The voices the journalists and stewards
Cut down in their prime in silence
On that day, February '58
They got what they'd need
From Belgrade and back home to sleep
This fall was greater than them all
News and tributes come leaking in
As all eyes turn to Europe
I'd forgotten the sadness in
The voices the journalists and stewards
They're still singing despite the years
Sending them back into Europe
There's a ringing in the ears
That lasts from here to Munich
News and tributes leaking in
Leaking in leaking in
On that day, February '58
They got what they'd need
From Belgrade and back home to sleep
More than a name to millions
What could've been changed
By all the boys leaving Munich on that day
The snow came and sent them to sleep
This fall was greater than them all
News and tributes come leaking in
As all eyes turn to Europe
I'd forgotten the sadness in
The voices the journalists and stewards
Cut down in their prime in silence
On that day, February '58
They got what they'd need
From Belgrade and back home to sleep
This fall was greater than them all
News and tributes come leaking in
As all eyes turn to Europe
I'd forgotten the sadness in
The voices the journalists and stewards
They're still singing despite the years
Sending them back into Europe
There's a ringing in the ears
That lasts from here to Munich
News and tributes leaking in
Leaking in leaking in
