Keane - Sovereign Light Café lyrics

Your rating:

I'm going back to a time when we owned this town
Down Powdermill lane in 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 Café.

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.

Refrein:
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 Café.

Refrein 2:
Let's go down to the bandstand on the pier
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
To take turns as the stars of the Sovereign Light Café.

I wheel my bike off the train
Up the North Trade Road
And look for you on Marley Lane
In every building, in every street side
Oh, why did we ever go so far from home?

Well, you got nothing to hide
You can't change who you really are
You can get a big house and a faster car
You can run away, boy, but you won't go far.

Refrein.

Refrein 2.

Sha la la la la la la la ay, yeah
I'm going where the people know my name.
