Town To Be Blamed

Close your eyes and go to sleep

From the howling howling over these streets

People stare 'cause you're so mad

That wild wild spark that innocent laugh

But baby that's this town

It won't happen next time

Yeah baby that's this town

Lovers on love downs

It's this town to be blamed

At the top of the block there's a church

At the top of the tower there's the clock

And it rings and it sighs

Cause there's no time for all these lies

But baby that's this town

It won't happen next time

Yeah baby that's this town

Lovers on love downs

It's this town to be blamed

Baby take a walk round to my house

Throw off these tired eyes and tears and these frowns

Take that lane so narrow and deep and walk those regrets that fill your sleep

You say your sleep is naked and your dreams are clothed

But what about your footsteps

Who sees them go

Who lets you know about these things

Who's gonna say the things we think

So take your keys and pack your bags

But leave your books and leave your maps

Cause baby that's this town

It won't happen next time

Yeah baby that's this town

It won't happen next time

Yeah baby that's this town

It won't happen next time

Sure baby that's this town

Lovers on love downs

It's this town to be blamed

It's this town to be blamed

Work work work

Rain rain rain

Home home home

Again again again

Work work work

Rain rain rain

Home home home

Again again again
