David & The Citizens - Summer In Nomansland lyrics

"In the summer I was waiting

For the daughter of a drunk and a waitress

to recover, to get better

‘Til the last day of the summer had blown over

The birds were singin' a last goodbye

The only thing that could be heard

Except for the sob and dropping of tears

the loss of someone who'd really been gone for years

The sky was bluer than ever before

Our minds were bluer than ever before

Tax-free shoppers in the harbour

Far from all this misery, this misery yeah

Here they sit in the pouring sun

all day long, just wasting time

all day long, just waiting for a strangers eye and a strangers smile

and the trembling air full of laughter and eyes

Rolling ‘round in your head ‘til the day you drop dead

On your side on the livingroom floor

I took the bus loaded with stuff

And oceans of sweat pouring down on my back,

oceans of sweat pouring down on my back

In the summer I was waiting

For the daughter of a drunk and a waitress

to recover, to get better

‘Til the last day of the summer had blown over

"
