Windy Town

Drivin' down from the Highland line We done some gigs on the Clyde and the Tyne They flew us in from the Hamburg strip The taste of Dusseldorf still on our lips And on the bus there's a friend of mine We go way back to the scene of the crime We sit up front and share a cigarette And try to remember what we tried to forget He said "Do you remember?" He said "Do you recall?" I said "Yeah, I remember Oh I remember it all" Every time the cold wind blows Every time I hear the sound Late night train shunting down by the river I remember windy town We come so far and we move so fast Makin' hay see it all go past Around the world and around again Up and down on that gravy train Every time the cold wind blows Every time I hear the sound East cost crosswinds on a cold wet stone I remember windy town I seen it all before The freezin' corners and the empty streets The burnin' passion and the cold wet feet Three tricky miles home every night Dodgin' from the shadows underneath those amber lights No car for kissin' and no where to go 'Cept inside each other and I love you so I held your face as you shivered in the rain Girl I'll always love you and I love you again Every time Yeah every time Every time the cold wind blows Every time I hear the sound Late night train shunting down by the river I remember windy town Every time the cold wind blows Every time I hear the sound East cost crosswinds on a cold wet stone I remember I remember windy town --- Windy Town - Chris Rea
