The Amazing Machine That Does Not Work (demo Version) Lyrics - Something For Kate

Somewhere, we'll meet 

Some blue stoned back street 

Some black and white scene 

Just you, and me, and the amazing machine that does not work 

In seprate lives the gentle hum of post-war 

For you and I 

We're happy here in the sun 

I followed you around 

I followed you around inside my head 

Packed up my bags and unpacked them again 

We know this place yeah 

We've been here before 

You'll find our names, 

Their scratched into the wall 

We'll be the last ones out of the door 

We could smell the fire but we didn't shout 

We're down with the ship and we're over and out 

Singing along with the count down 

Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh... 

A big mistake 

To talk like there's no tomorrow 

And then it came 

We hope, sometimes when hopes are so heavy that 

The bird can't fly 

We'll see, again 

I wanted to show them all of the disorder 

I wanted to take your hand and stagger to order 

We know this place yeah 

We've seen it before 

Look at our names yeah 

They're scratched into the wall 

We'll be the last ones out of the door 

We could smell fire but we didn't shout 

We're down with the ship and we're over and out 

Singing along with the count down 

We're singing along 

You and me, we were as thick as thieves 

We were trying to steal the same thing...
