It's Immaterial - New Brighton lyrics

From the shore to the station The blinds are down People say the place is slowly dying There's not a sound Above the rooftops from the high rise You can see for miles A caravan on every part of land Up and down the coastal plains In New Brighton when it rains New Brighton in the rain And yesterday, well, I saw you Main Street way Looking at the empty boarding houses And closed arcades Well, it's funny just to think The tides now out And there is very little story to be found In the shops and buildings here In New Brighton when it rains New Brighton in the rain Down by the beach where I first met you The rains came down Looking out across the swell to Liverpool The seabirds cry And something tells me you'll be leaving The place won't look the same Well, I can understand, give a helping hand Nothing's gonna keep you here In New Brighton when it rains Upon New Brighton's North Parade As far as I can see The lights are down An out-of-season look About the town A out-of-season look
