Sali - Westhill's Rain Lyrics

To let go of the train ride
The pristine blue-green wild
Under Stonehaven's sun
No rays kissing your face
By the kitchen table's window
No more thinking you are the one
To never walk those streets again
Lined by quiet trees
Reveries of a lasting you and me
Warm hands and cold feet
Our green Wellies
On a riverbank in Banchory
No greener grass was waiting
On the other side
Just the same old pavement
Sweltering in July
No more breathing dreams
The leaves have fallen in vain
In Westhill's cold cold rain
But I loved you just the same
I loved you just the same
I love you just the same
I loved you just the same
Did the black swallow you whole,
Or have you finally shed your skin,
Filled yourself whole to the brim?
Have you softened your heart,
Undressed your lies, hardened your spine,
Or are you still sleepwalking?
You turned the hills into wastelands
Buried your head in hot sand
And asked me to please understand
You said I was no walk in the park
Never mind your landmines,
Where I tripped unarmed in your dark
No greener grass was waiting
On the other side
Just the same old pavement
Sweltering in July
No more breathing dreams
The leaves have fallen in vain
In Westhill's cold cold rain
But I loved you just the same
I loved you just the same
I love you just the same
I loved you just the same
No firecracker playing in the car
No orange sky in our smiling eyes
This could have been something worthwhile
But you don't know how to fight
And I can't reconcile
Worlds too far apart
No greener grass was waiting
On the other side
Just the same old pavement
Sweltering in July
No more breathing dreams
The leaves have fallen in vain
In Westhill's cold cold rain
But I loved you just the same
I loved you just the same
I love you just the same
I loved you just the same
