leafhound

Singer:saint etienne

i wish they wouldn't laugh. i've been driving for some time and the towns look the same

this town feels very different as though i've been here before

this looks like the old school-yard where we both used to play

and the kids in that building

they look just like our friends

something about this place makes me lose a grip on time and space

i haven't seen you for years but i feel you could be here right now

and i know it's strange

yes i know it's strange

that you could be here with me now

days spent staring at highways

strange effects on the brain

i can tell i'm not dreaming

i know i'm wide awake!

i'm sure i saw the theater that burnt down in '83

and i followed the harley that had your number-plate

something about this place makes me lose a grip on time and space

i haven't seen you for years but i feel you could be here right now

and i know it's strange

yes i know it's strange

that you could be here with me now

there's something about this place.
