The lyrics date it but I don't care, I love this song. Wes too apparently as he covered it on banjo at the final Gregson Open Mic in 2010, much to my surprise and pleasure.

lyrics

Googled your name, whilst getting on with life
Asked Jeeves the same, I’ve even got a wife
But I search in vain

Friends Reunited, it’s a joke; a house in Stow on the Wold
But your trail is cold

As long as the dawn will break, for you I ache
As long as the dawn will break, for you I ache

Hung round your haunts, wife and kids in tow
But you never show

As long as the dawn will break, for you I ache
As long as the dawn will break, for you I ache

It’s a right old how’d you do
There’s us, them, me and you

Googled your name whilst getting on with life
But I search in vain

As long as the dawn will break, for you I ache
As long as the dawn will break, for you I ache
