It was the shock of the new 
That kept the latest two 
At the top of the charts all summer 

It must have been something like 11 weeks 
That we spent up there 
But still... 

That was then and this is now 
That was then and this is now 
That was just nostalgia 

I used to think I'd never cry 
Or worry if I said goodbye 
'Cos human beings have all 
Outgrown those basic feelings anyway... 

That was then and this is now 
That was then and this is now 
That was just nostalgia 

So don't you worry 
About the pretty creatures in the street 
The pretty creatures that I'd like 
To eat up for breakfast

The pretty creatures in the streets 
The pretty creatures that I'd like 
To eat up for breakfast 
That's all in the past 

I may never have a daughter 
Cos I've far too much to tell her 
And far too much to answer to 

I want to move into the future 
Move in to the future 
Move into the future with you 
And the politics of love 
And who I used to dream of 
That was just nostalgia 

I want to move into the future 
Move in to the future 
Move into the future with you 
And the politics of love 
And who I used to dream of 
That was just nostalgia
