| You spend school morning smoking foggy damp- bus stop cold.
|
| Darling, you’re only seventeen,
|
| why are you scared of growing old?
|
| You trace your name in the water on a classroom window
|
| Then with one warm breathe
|
| you watch your faith fade and your dreams go but
|
| There are raindrops in your raincoat
|
| Never bothered, too cold.
|
| Oh they’ll smile from a street lamp for a while
|
| But they’ll say nothing at all.
|
| Said you want to be a wanderer
|
| There’s a man on the bench who just keeps talking to himself
|
| He’s got his whole life in a broken bag,
|
| and all his problems on his shelf.
|
| The mute-head was calling but you can’t hear a word he says,
|
| Something about his raincoat but his words are all a blaze.
|
| There are raindrops in your raincoat
|
| Never bothered, too cold.
|
| Oh they’ll smile from a street lamp for a while
|
| But they’ll say nothing at all.
|
| Say you want to be a wanderer,
|
| But your ship is anchored to a dirty city seabed
|
| And well, oh it’s dragging you down.
|
| Summer’s gonna come back and kick straight to the head
|
| and strand you on the wrong side of town.
|
| Yeah, you’re ship is anchored to a dirty city seabed
|
| And well, oh dragging you down.
|
| Summer’s gonna come back and kick straight to the head
|
| and strand you on the wrong side of town,
|
| on the wrong side of town,
|
| on the wrong side of town.
|
| Don’t drag your feet it wears your soles right out.
|
| Then with one step dancing, your soul’s been torn right out.
|
| Your head is swimming just to keep your mind afloat.
|
| You’re tired of the past when you needed your raincoat.
|
| There are raindrops in your raincoat
|
| Never bothered, too cold.
|
| Oh they’ll smile from a street lamp for a while
|
| But they’ll say nothing at all.
|
| Say you want to be a wanderer.
|
| There are raindrops in your raincoat
|
| Never bothered, too cold.
|
| Oh they’ll smile from a street lamp for a while
|
| But they’ll say nothing at all.
|
| Say you want to be a wanderer,
|
| say you want to be a wanderer. |
