lyrics

Song For A City

Walking out in a city ---
Songs from the alleyways,
From underneath the tall archways
With pockets full of pity.

Headlights burning
Two holes in the blackness,
Down past the old churchyard
Eyes --- sore and hurting.

And someone’s walking out down by where they had the fairground
Soft-foot through the night past the freaks without a sound
And nothing really matters now that you are not around here
No care taken la la-la-la

He’s calm like a bomb
While focus lasts on your photo,
There’s always places you can go to
When it doesn’t feel like home.

Headlights burning
Bright in the blackness ---
Slam the kissing gate,
Eyes --- wide and searching.

And someone’s walking out down by where they had the fairground
Soft-foot through the night past the freaks without a sound
Nothing really matters now that you are not around here
No care taken --- Hyde Park is dark

Walking out in a city ---
Songs from the alleyways,
From underneath the tall archways
With pockets full of pity.
