Town To Be Blamed Lyrics - Homesick - Deacon Blue

Close your eyes and go to sleep 

From the howling howling over these streets 

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 

Yeah 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 

Work work work 

Rain rain rain 

Home home home 

Again again again
