about

A true story about all the nice things and only a few of the bad.

lyrics

A walk around a river, a moment in the aisle
A table full of strangers, the fastest ever mile
A cafe on the seafront, a half-shark in the rain
A car stopped in a gateway, and a car stopped there again

Like surfacing
Like surfacing
It's all forgiven
It's like surfacing

A fire after the rainstorm, a box of broken stuff
The ants who climb the wall there, a cluttered kind of love
The last one in the shopfront, a ladder painted black
The starlight on the carpet, and all the words I lack

Like surfacing
Like surfacing
It's all forgiven
It's like surfacing

And you've seen me with the lights on and you've heard it all before you could write it with the lights off you could scrawl it on the floor and it's less the way it happened and it's not the way it was but I bought it from somebody and I sold it at a loss and it's not that I don't want to cos I always always do but the nights are getting longer and I'm breaking things in two for the

feeling.

stars.

out.

Just can't stop making albums, it seems! I am also in Luxembourg, Menaces, Laverne and Keith Top of the Pops and his Minor UK Indie Celebrity All-Star Backing Band, so go and look at their pages. They're good!
