lyrics

Whitby chips wrapped up, warming hands.
And as I climb up the narrow hill,
One last time, a shadow's cast.

Starlings swoop and swing wildly by,
And looking up I’m lifted on the wing,
And my thoughts take flight.

It’s Autumn in Lisbon,
High time for action,
But I’m just passing time, passing through.
Unsure why I’m here,
Halfway to Brazil,
Well the flights were booked and irredeemable.

High above they swirl
Every which way,
Through narrow streets they dive past drying sheets,
In October heat
and every turn and swerve at dizzy height
is purely guided by the wings of those on either side
a searing sight.

It’s Autumn in Lisbon,
High time for action,
But I’m just passing time, passing through.
Unsure why I’m here,
Halfway to Brazil,
Well the flights were booked and irredeemable.

Chestnut vendors sell on every corner of the square
And by the castle stair, filling the air with their wares
And in the corner of my eye,
I see half a man with half a mind.

It’s Autumn in Lisbon,
High time for action,
But I’m just passing time, passing through.
Unsure why I’m here,
Halfway to Brazil,
Well the flights were booked and irredeemable.
