Deacon Blue Town to Be Blamed Lyrics

Close your eyes
And go to sleep
From the howling howling
Over these streets
'Cause People stare
'Cause you're so mad
That wild wild spark
That innocent laugh

But baby that's this town
It won't happen next time
Yeah baby that's this town
Lovers on love downs
It's this town to be blamed

At the top of the block
There's a church
At the top of the tower
There's the clock
And it rings
And it sighs
'Cause there's no time
For all these lies

But baby that's this town
It won't happen next time
Baby that's this town
Lovers on love downs
It's this town to be blamed

Baby take a walk
Round to my house
Throw off these tired eyes and tears
And these frowns
Take that lane
So narrow and deep
And walk those regrets
That fill your sleep
You say your sleep is naked
And your dreams are clothed
But what about your footsteps
Who sees them go
Who lets you know
About these
Things who's gonna say
The things we think
So take your keys
And pack your bags
But leave your books
And leave your maps

'Cause baby that's this town
It won't happen next time
Yeah baby that's this town
It won't happen next time
Yeah baby that's this town
It won't happen next time
Sure baby that's this town
Lovers on love downs
It's this town to be blamed
It's this town to be blamed

Work work work
Rain rain rain
Home home home
Again again again

It's work work work
Rain rain rain
Home home home
Again again again
