lyrics & notes

Times crawls by round here.
Everybody’s trying.
To keep the kids from crying too much.
Not much new round here.
It’s all pretty good
In your old neighbourhood
Last night on her new birthday screen, my girl went to explore
Last night she ran in shaking, said you’ll never guess who I just saw…
Did you know,
You’re still around,
In a photograph I found.
My favourite ghost, we saw you in our street today.
Seasons roll round here
We’re here gritting up the road
You’ll have have to do that again
Winter’s cold round here
But you’re never getting old
It always will be summer for you now.
Incase I ever need you, something I need to share.
I dropped a pin into the map.
So I can always find you there.
Did you know,
You’re still around,
In a photograph she found.
My lovely ghost, I saw you in our street today.
Say how long will you stay?
Say how long will you stay?
I’ve been waiting for the sun
I like it when our seasons align
And we can see the same cloudless sky of blue
Where’s my best friend gone?
Did you know that you were out of time?
I guess that it was never up to you.
You’d think there'd be a warning
We’ve had all that we’re allowed
Not just over written.
Tell me where are you right now?
Did you know
That we all saw you frozen in your time before.
My lovely ghost,
We saw in you in our street.
So, where are you now?
