The song was released to celebrate a run of 4 sold out shows at London’s Brixton Academy and was taken from the Noonday Dream sessions.
Way up there
They think they found
A world for us
To settle down
And I know now
We failed somehow
Pick my feet
Up from the ground
The hills have rolled into the clouds
And callous faces
Line the alleyways
Where I long for you
It is no revolution
See
It always has been you and me
In the bar on the photo
Trying to find common ground
And she sings to me
When I'm wound
"If you can't love this
All goes way"
Way up there
They think they found
A world for us
To settle down
And I know now
We failed somehow
Pick my feet
Up from the ground
The hills have rolled into the clouds
And callous faces
Line the alleyways
Where I long for you
(What's a boy to do?)
It is no revolution
See
It always has been you and me
In the bar on the photo
Trying to find common ground
And she sings to me
When I'm round
"If you can't love this
All goes way
If you can't love this
All goes way"
