lyrics

I can see the sea from the window in my room, and the polo tower rot, decay and die.
I sat in that pod as a child with thoughts, is this how it feels to fly?
Though this does not explain, why the fury built and came.
Where is this small town going?
I could get on a boat, sail out in that sea, but still I’d end up coming home for tea.
I genuinely used to think about the time, it would take to sail from Morecambe to New York
I kinda dreamt seeing the prospect shine, leaving this whole town behind.
But deep down I know that won’t occur, with me trudging back to Eric’s front door.
Hiking past abandoned hotels and through quick sand, there’s nothing I don’t love about this land.
Though this does not explain why we always lose the game,
Where is this small town going?
I could get on a boat, sail out in that sea, but still I’d end up coming home for tea.
I never thought I’d feel this way; about the place I once despised everyday.
No doubt that I will often have to say goodbye, but I’ll do it with a glimmer in my eye, in my eye.
I could get on a boat, sail out in that sea, but still I’d end up coming home for tea.
