lyrics

I'm staying out in case your parents call
I wouldn't mind but Manchester gets cold
You quit your job and suddenly got cool
All of the grind I'm thinking I'm a fool
I waste all day, your mouldy basement flat
I kill the boredom with another Platt Fields walk
The Gallery had this empty room

It's been a long time coming
It's been a while my troubled soul
While we're out here waiting
for the sea to save us all
These streets all look the same
And I can't find my way back home
And look I can take the blame
But blame can be lonesome

Last night I parked up close to your old house
I got reminded of your fags and fishbowl
Remember trying to carry your couch
Two floors up thinking it's impossible
Remember cutting me a set of keys
Last night I went and walked up and down Salford Quays
When all we wanted was the peaceful life

It's been a long time coming
It's been a while my troubled soul
While we're out here waiting
for the sea to save us all
These streets all look the same
And I can't find my way back home
And look I can take the blame
But blame can be lonesome

It's been a long time coming
It's been a while my troubled soul
While we're out here waiting
for the sea to save us all
These streets all look the same
Now I can't find my way back home
And look I can take the blame
But blame can be lonesome
