  • 作词 : Paul Cassidy/Mac Manus
    作曲 : Mac Manus/Ian Belton
    C/0 st. ignatus house, willoughby drive, parrametta,
    New south wales
    This fifth day of july, in the year of our lord nineteen
    Hundred and thirty five
    Why must i apologize every time that i sit down to write
    Through my own fault i may find
    You're no longer living at this address
    Please excuse the lack of news
    The feeling of strange privilege
    For the hour of trial, in these times of distress
    Mean more than years imprisoned by etiquette.
    I can remember when we were children
    Though i could never imagine this day
    Your brother told me we'd live forever
    'i'll go one better,' i heard myself say
    And it seems so strange, now that he's gone to recall all these
    Games
    While the years have divided us
    Friendships have strained and broken
    Oh, by the way, how's that girl that you wed
    I hated you then, but i'm over the worst of it
    I can't come home, i might as well say, life is short
    I shall not write again
