Paul Banks - On The Esplanade lyrics

On the esplanade Down by the sea Baby watch my back I think somebody's been following me You feel overcome With trying to play it dead You feel safe that way Is it better than just playing instead? Was a big step for me to roll up my golden light Should have saved, saved my energy I'm awake today It's so nice to see the window, wash my dreams away And I prop myself up on my pillow We've been through shaky times But I'm glad you found your way There was too much panic then From here on it will be straight all the way Was a big step for me to roll up my golden light Should have saved, saved my energy Changing with time I can't wait for the sign Is this right? Day turns your side, but the day brings the pride of the light Oh the peace comes at night I will never break from this shadow of exile To be blinded Changing with time I can't wait for the sign Is this right? Is this right?
