Sarah Jane Morris, Enrico Melozzi - Illumination

Текст песни

Yesterday I walked the pier,
I watched the tide retreat.
For far too long I gazed out
Trying not to admit defeat
To different times on other shores,
Knowing nothing of worth could be mine that was yours.
Only a shadow of the good remains,
All that’s left is this lingering pain
Like a seaside resort out of season
I stand all alone with no reason.
Today I sit under the shade
Of a broken structure wrecked with age.
At the far end of a beach
Where present time will never reach
Knowing nothing is gonna take us back,
We’re on the wrong side of the track.
Only a shadow of the good remains,
And all that’s left is a lingering pain
Like a seaside resort out of season
I stand here all alone with no reason.
Tomorrow I’ll go to the city,
Tomorrow might be nothing at all.
But today I am searching for reasons,
I’m trying to make sense of it all.
Oh and how many days since last I saw you,
And what good did the seeing do.
Only the shadow of the good remains,
And all that’s left is a lingering pain
Like a seaside resort out of season
I’m stranded alone with no meaning.
Only a shadow of the good remains
All that’s left is this lingering pain
Like a seaside resort out of season
I stand all alone, Ive no reason
Like a seaside resort out of season
I am all alone, I’ve no reason
I am alone, I’ve no meaning.
