This is track #4 from the original album of 1985 as well as the 2007 remastered re-release.
Paddy on the song:
“It is a very personal song. It’s not that far removed from personal experience. I’ve worked so hard, it’s been to the detriment of other things. Relationships have suffered, I don’t mind saying that. But I know if I don’t work hard I won’t get that golden moment. I know I can go even further but to do that I have to narrow down my interests.” - Melody Maker, June 1, 1985

possibly from the recent re-release of "steve mcqueen". i believe there was a bonus disc of the album re-recorded acoustically. i could be wrong. i could be right.

Where did this version come from????? I have been a PF fan since Lions in My Own Garden ... never heard this one before. This made my day. Paddy, to my mind, one of the all time greatest songwriters.
