“4 sets of lyrics have been choosen for the Stuart Adamson memorial bench. These have been choosen from a poll voted for by facebook bc fans. These are as follows:
1) Here is strength for us to find, to turn the old to new and wipe our eyes of misty years and see the future through
2) Your name will never die; this time will be forever
3) In a big country dreams stay with you like a lover’s vioce fires the mountainside Stay Alive !
4) Some days will stay a thousand years some pass like the flash of a spark who knows where all our days go !
