From Roddy “Waverley – The Waverley steps lead down to Waverley station in Edinburgh Idlewild is from Edinburgh and i have a real connection to the city because of that even though I moved away 20 years ago.
It is a song about the connections we make to places (and p...
If there's no geography
In the things that we say
So words will keep us locked
In their old-fashioned way
Sure we are held together by
The experiences we've shared
But it's taken me
Waverley steps to get there
Close the front door
To open the window
Let the light be mined away
At least the light is mine always
But even the light will fade away
I woke up from this dream I had
In Washington Square
When the sun finds its place
On my skin
And your eyes, they look down from a silent film
We're both breathing smoke like we're breathing air
But it's taken me
Waverley steps to get there
Close the front door
To open the window
Let the light be mined away
At least the light is mine always
Even when the light won't fade away
And you want to feel you lived in
You you want to feel you lived in
A different lifetime again
And you want to feel you lived in
You you want to feel you lived in
A different lifetime again
And you want to feel you lived in
You you want to feel you lived in
A different lifetime again
Close the front door
To open the window
Let the light be mined away
At least the light is mine always
Even if the light will fade away
And you want to feel you lived in
You want to feel you lived in
A different lifetime again
And you want to feel you lived in
You you want to feel you lived in
A different lifetime again
And you want to feel you lived in
You you want to feel you lived in
A different lifetime again
