By storm Songtext

von Jan Allain

I'll never come back I whispered in August
All I ever do is wish I were down by the sea
Five years ago I left you for something
A little closer to nature than you'll ever be
With your engines your systems, endless competition
And every type of individual trying to be
I fell from the force of your urban existence
Now I'll never turn my back on this English city
By storm I will take you
By storm I will make you
The place where my heart and ambition are one
By storm I will take you
By storm I will make you
The place where my heart and ambition are one
Well this was my road, this was my home
And all the kids I used to play with
Have grown up and gone
And the houses are missing and the wasteland is kissing
The sky above it like a lover when the feelings too strong
And those in your boxes down by your railways
Every time I take a train I ride through your dreams
And some live in places built for your status
Your never ending contradictions and you're full of extremes
Old as your river wide as the sky
Every hope and aspiration just passes you by
Cold as the blood that runs for your money
You promise everyone a good time if we heed to your cry
Well I can see mountains from Gascony Avenue
I can see your rainbows rising from grey
I'll sing you my songs oh I'll tell my stories
I hope you've got the time to listen and hear what I say
By storm I will take you
By storm I will make you
The place where my heart and ambition are one
By storm like crazy weather
We'll soon be together
The place where the start of my stories begun...
