Keane - Sovereign Light Cafe Lyrics
I'm going back to a time when we owned this townDown Powder Mill Lane and the battlegroundsWe were friends and lovers and clueless clownsI didn't know I was finding out how I'd be torn from youWhen we talked about things we were gonna doWe were wide eyed dreamers and wiser tooWe'd go down to the rides on east paradeBy the lights of the palace arcade and watch nightComing down on the sovereign light cafeI'm begging you for some sign but you still got nothing to sayDon't turn your back on me, don't walk awayI'm a better man now than I was that dayLet's go down to the rides on east paradeBy the lights of the palace arcade and watch nightComing down on the sovereign light cafeLet's go down to the bandstand on the pierWatch the drunks and the lovers appear to take turnsAs the stars of the sovereign light cafeI wheel my bike off the train, up the north trade roadAnd look for you on marley lane in every building and every street signOh why did we ever go so far from homeBut you've got nothing to hide, you can't change who you really areYou can get a big house and a faster carYou can run away boy but you won't go farLet's go down to the rides on east paradeBy the lights of the palace arcade and watch nightComing down on the sovereign light cafeLet's go down to the bandstand on the pierWatch the drunks and the lovers appear to take turnsAs the stars of the sovereign light cafe
