Rhett said “I remember writing this song in London. I wanted it to be Buddy Holly song… that was the idea.” (StageIt 8/10/20)
[Verse 1]
It's a big old mess of brick and stone
Man can't live on love alone
Yeah I hear that's good 'cause it's all gone
Yeah there's nothin' to do but carry on
[Chorus]
Rain falls down on this dirty old town
Nothin's gonna get it clean
See what I mean
[Verse 2]
Takes stand in a topless bar
Weathered old man on a wet guitar
We all do the thousand-yard stare
Shufflin' around and goin' nowhere
[Chorus]
Crowds roll in and they do it again
Nothin's gonna break this routine
See what I mean
[Refrain]
Here she comes, my girl
A bright spark in a dark world
Here she comes, my girl
Bright spark in a dark world
[Verse 3]
There's a big old mess of brick and stone
Nightmare when I was on my own
She showed up and it's okay
Now I don't mind that the sky is grey
[Chorus]
Rain falls down on this dirty old town
She's the only shine I've seen
See what I mean
See what I mean
[Refrain]
Here she comes, my girl
Bright spark in a dark world
Here she comes, my girl
Bright spark in a dark world
[Outro]
See what I mean
See what I mean
