No I don't lack ambition
Can't you see what I hate
That it's you who is sinking
Locked behind iron gates
90s

There's a stain on my notebook
Where your coffee cup was
And there's ash in the pages
Now I've got myself lost
80s

You get a shiver in the dark
It's a raining in the park but meantime-
South of the river you stop and you hold everything
A band is blowing Dixie, double four time
70s

Somebody told her that there was a place like heaven
Across the water on a 747
Yeah, we're living in
In a modern world

We've had some fun, and yes we've had our ups and downs
Been down that rocky road, but here we are, still around
We thought about someone else, but neither one took the bait
We thought about breaking up, now we know it's much too late
80s

Comes to mind but no idea where from

So it's it's unrelated to rogue s terse line, please treat it as something to be guessed

midgemagneto · 03/07/2021 08:06

I'll answer myself ,since it's last decade , not a hit or anyone famous
