Slow Down At The Castle Lyrics - Saint Etienne

Slow down at the castle 

Things to straighten in her head 

And she knows it's not a castle 

But that's what they've always said 

Shaded by the tower 

As she clambers to her seat 

With the ash of last night's party 

Clinging grimly to her feet 

Not for the first time 

She's made her bed 

Now she leaves that all behind and turns her mind 

To playful things instead

Days spent making stories 

For the faces that pass by 

From the lonely tea shop owner 

To the misbehaving wife 

Now they're growing ever wilder 

As the people start to go 

Now she dreams that there's assassins 

Hiding in the woods below 

Photos 

Not for the first time 

She's made her bed 

Now she leaves that all behind and turns her mind 

To playful things instead 

And she knows this must end 

As the long shadows start to blend 

She must be on her way...
