Jesse Quin - Sovereign Light Café lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm going back to a time when we owned this town Down Powder Mill 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 [Chorus 1] We'd go down to the rides on East Parade By the lights of the Palace Arcade Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus 2] Let's go down to the rides on East Parade By the lights of the Palace Arcade Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café 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 [Bridge] I wheel my bike off the train Up the North Trade Road Look for you on Marley Lane In every building, every street sign Oh why did we ever go so far from home? [Verse 3] Well you've 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 [Chorus 2] Let's go down to the rides on East Parade By the lights of the Palace Arcade Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café 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 [Outro] Sha La la la la la Yeah Yeah I'm going where the people know my name
