Will Varley - Somers Town

Broken windows and red wine,
Headlights on the road
She writes a word across my mind
Then we explode
From stage left the first light comes
She was telling me stories of kings and queens
That in the end the things they've done
Mean they only smile in their dreams
cnd it was 4am
cnd there was sheets of rain
cnd the paint around her windows was turning brown
Wait for me in Somers Town

She was never the same after she found God
I remember the fire in her brain
I was never the same after Chicago
I remember the sound of a distant train
She says its getting late
cnd then the levees break
Underneath a bridge, no one around
Wait for me in Somers Town

She rents a room inside my thoughts
cnd comes to stay this time of year
I heard she spent some time up north
I wonder if she knows she's here
cnd from stage left the decades climb
cnd every version that I've found
Of the beginning of time
Starts with a word or a sound

Wait for me in Somers Town
Wait for me in Somers Town
Wait for me in Somers Town

There's a strange man lives in my house
Wears my boots and uses my name
I can't seem to throw him out
