Sovereign Light Café Lyrics by Keane Keane
Below, you will find the lyrics for Sovereign Light Café by Keane.
Verse 1
I'm going back to a time when we owned this town
Down Powdermill lane and the Battle grounds
Verse 1
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns
I didn't know I was finding out how I'd be torn from you
When we talked about things we were gonna do
We were wide-eyed dreamers and wiser too
Chorus 1
We'd go down to the rides on east parade
By the lights of the palace arcade
And watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
Verse 2
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
Don't turn your back on me, don't walk away
I'm a better man now than I was that day
Chorus 2
Let's go down to the rides on east parade
By the lights of the palace arcade
And watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
Let's go down to the bandstand on the pier
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
To take turns as the stars of the Sovereign Light Café
Bridge
I wheel my bike off the train
Up the North Trade Road
And look for you on Marley Lane
In every building, in every street sign
Why did we ever go
So far from home?
Verse 3
But you've got nothing to hide, you can't change who you really are
You can get a big house and a faster car
You can run away, boy, but you won't go far
Chorus 3
Let's go down to the rides on east parade
By the lights of the palace arcade
And watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
Let's go down to the bandstand on the pier
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
To take turns as the stars of the Sovereign Light Café
Outro
Yeah, I'm going where the people know my name
