Remember the place we used to know all those years ago Remember the times we used to have there when we were so young We'd look to the future in our naive way We'd look from the sands the world seemed far away
So when we heard we tried to save it but we went unheard And even in the eleventh hour they still said no Just look at that building it's just falling down The cost of repair was too much for this town
NEVER AGAIN WILL I STAND ON THE PAVILION STEPS NEVER AGAIN WILL I STAND ON THE PAVILION STEPS
So on that place there lies a tarmac mat, nothing remains Ashes to ashes dust to dust we must return some day They say there's a fallow field so far away Where nothing will grow again or so they say
NEVER AGAIN WILL I STAND ON THE PAVILION STEPS NEVER AGAIN WILL I STAND ON THE PAVILION STEPS
Is this the so called modem age that i've heard about With it's new age and it's new cage that we, we can't escape The end of the place where our memories are kept The end of the new way the start of the next The end of a landmark the end of an era now
NEVER AGAIN WILL I STAND ON THE PAVILION STEPS (NEVER AGAIN WILL I STAND ON THE PAVILION) (repeat)
