How We Used To Live Lyrics - Travel Edition 1990-2005 - St Etienne

A rose scented June 

A rose he pulled in June 

They're full upon the lawn 

The doctor came at dawn 

An old daily care 

And Suzie Banana Stand 

Through frosted windowpane 

Your father's middle name 

From a train 

And everywhere the snow falls 

Sail away, sail away, sail away, sail away 

A veil of faded blue 

A Ruben's old curfew 

One windy winter's day 

A Windsor market day 

People say 

Everywhere the snow falls 

Sail away, sail away, sail away, sail away 

Sail away, sail away, sail away, sail away 

She's moving down the seaside 

'Cause that's where he comes from 

He gave away all of her records 

Is that where she belongs? 

Better think it through 

Remember who 

Is there something new? 

Or is it you again? 

Sail away, sail away, sail away 

Sail away, sail away, sail away 

Sail away, sail away, sail away 

Sail away, sail away, sail away 

So take your red gown 

And go down to the dam 

To do as you please 

On the streets of your town 

The whistling kind 

Shake it out of your mind 

It could be the day 

When you finally say 

Sail away, sail away 

Sail away, sail away, sail away 

Sail away, on and on, on and on 

On and on, on and on, on and on, on and on 

Up the riverbank and under the viaduct 

Causeway full of nice cars 

The sand a distant dream 

[Incomprehensible] 

[Incomprehensible] 

Across the riverbank 

Cross the riverbank, don't look back 

(To sail away and on and on) 

(To sail away and on and on) 

(To sail away and leave and go) 

(To sail away) 

I sail, you sail 

(And on and on) 

(To sail away) 

I sail, you sail 

(And on and on) 

(To sail away) 

Do you remember how? 

(And on and on) 

(To sail away) 

Do you remember how? 

(And on and on) 

((To sail away) 

Do you remember how? 

(And on and on) 

(To sail away and on and on) 

Do you remember how we used to live? 

Do you remember how we used to live? 

Do you remember how we used to live?
