lyrics

The cloverleaf of cars is secretly a harbor town, oyster shell feels hard but after hours settles down. Come walk about. The three bars all close down by two, the seabirds sleep and the sea stars crew, the rocks and docks belong to you and me.

The coldest time of day is also the most colorful: purple sky, blue bay, the orange of your glowing clove. Let's talk about how sleep will hit us in a few, then autumn brings us to somewhere new, and I'll get used to missing you a lot.

Come with me, we only get a few of these; walk about, we'll make a map of memories. This town next year will be too tough, this time next year you'll be grown up.

Walk about, wake up for one last walkabout. This place will change, but that was always part of the deal; the twig and turf and the British steal, the fields and floods were never really ours. Wake up for one last memory, another lap of sidewalk seas. This town next year will be too tough, this time next year we'll be grown up.
