Waiting in the spaces
Of the place we used to know
Keeping us in t-shirts
And the unfamiliar
Postcodes and district lines
I do remember
Work on the hours
On the other side
Brother, brother
Oh won't you come with me?
Down into the river
That feeds into the deep
We'll build fishing nets
That we cast into the seas
And we'll throw them all back
Oh sister, won't you come with me?
We'll place castings
Round our little apple trees
And we know that when we leave
They'll follow us
Like royalty
Waiting in the spaces
Of the place we used to know
Keeping us in t-shirts
And the unfamiliar
Postcodes and district lines
I do remember
Work on the hours
On the other side
Brother, sister, won't you come with me?
We'll place castings
Round our little apple trees
And we know that when we leave
They'll follow us
Like royalty
Like royalty
