The Pastels - The Viaduct lyrics

We could drive there Arrive there Be alive there But your truck's broke down You're nowhere bound Will never leave this town But if it won't be you It probably won't be me We capered, burnt a Candle to the taper Tonight we'll swim In the river Kiss and shiver Were we ever inspired Just for a moment Or is this our life? Slackness in The blackness If that's the way we are No tricks, no coins No stars We need to stray And find a gateway Lifelong Feeling we're wrong To still be Hanging around Our old hunting ground We could go far Thanking our stars That the viaduct Broke Or we'd never have spoken By now Can't you see i'm Trying to tell you We've paid our dues
