High Days, Holy Days

from A Decent Man by Michael Weston King

/

lyrics

From my window,
I can see the clouds across the ocean
They are clear and still,
surrounded by the blue
As these Airfix wings,
tilt back towards the sky-line
I dream of being,
where I’ve always been,
alone, up here, with you.

Come on now,
let me show you around
High days and holy days are all that’s in this town
Come on girl
I will show you my world,
and I will be there

From this window,
I can see the fields are slowly sinking
They are brown and grey,
where once they shone with green
As these clattering cars
take me to where I’m going
I play out the scene,
where you’ll always be,
alone out here with me

Come on now,
let me show you around
High days and holy days are all that’s in this town
As we roll by
a little piece of blue sky
starts me crying

From this window,
I can see these towns are slowly dying
They are black and brown,
drowning in the gloom
And as I race through,
another thousand faceless places
I start to dream,
that I’ll never be,
as far again from you

Come on now,
let me show you around
High days and holy days are all that’s in this town
Come on girl
I will show you my world,
and I will be there
