Keane

I'm going back to a time when we owned this town
Down Powdermill Lane and the battlegrounds
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns
I didn't know I was finding out how I'd be torn from you
When we talked about things we were gonna do
We were wide-eyed dreamers and wiser too
We'd go down to the rides on East Parade
By the lights of the Palace Arcade
And watch night coming down
On the Sovereign Light Caf?
I'm begging you for some sign
But you've still got nothing to say
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
I'm a better man now than I was that day
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade
By the lights of the Palace Arcade
And watch night coming down
On the Sovereign Light Caf?
Let's go down to the bandstand on the pier
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
To take turns as the stars
