lyrics

Taken a wander to the dark end of the street
You listen too intently as you try to be discreet
Rumours float around like a scent in the air
Policemen shout their orders while pretending to be fair
Drunks stumble to make sense
There is whiskey on their breath
The lady's all look loveley now but they must be feeling fresh
Noise bellows out from behind closed doors
The muted vibration has the power to soar

I, well I know that this time is what I'll always live for

Lights glisten in the rain
As people flood the streets
The doormen shout the orders
now the policemen walk their beat
People que for taxi's
Who will charge what they can
For drunken negligence
And the thought of more rain

But I, I know that this time is what I'll always live for
