about

Another Tenby song about the benches on Castle Hill.

lyrics

Bench

Every morning the sun shines your walking,
And sit yourself down
On one of the benches with a gallery view.
With a name behind you of someone fine who
Left a hole in a life
On leaving the world to someone blue.

A bench with a name on it,
What could be wrong with it?
How do you get a bench with a name?
I could be beside you
To protect and guide you
Every day that you sit on a bench with a name.

Line by line sentinels of the time
That we were together
And thought that we'd never be torn apart.
Seagulls they wheel and sing, "People are fragile things,
Surprised when they see
They break so easily as do dreams and hearts".

Beneath the big sky on Castle Hill I
Share all your stories and witness your worries
And put a wooden arm around you.
I'm a name behind you - a guardian angel sent to guide you through
Every twist in your life
When nothing goes right and you don't know what to do.

I could be behind you
To protect and guide you
Every day that you sit on a bench with a name.
