I never saw it as the start It's more a change of heart Rapping on the windows, whistling down the chimney pots Blowing off the dust in the room where I forgot Yeah I laid my plans in solid rock Stepping through the door like a troubadour whiling just an hour away Looking at the trees on the roadside feeling it's a holiday
You and I should ride the coast And wind up in our favourite coats just miles away Roll a number, write another song like Jimmy heard the day he caught the train
He sipped another rum and coke and told a dirty joke Walking like Groucho sucking on a number 10 Rolling on the floor with the cigarette burns walked in Yeah I miss the crush and I'm home again Stepping through the door with the night in store whiling just an hour away, Step into the sky and the star-bright feeling it's a brighter day
Repeat Chorus
You and I should ride the tracks And find ourselves just wading through tomorrow But you and I when we're coming down We're only getting back You know I feel the sorrow
When you find that things are getting wild Don't you want days like these... Don't you need days like these...
