Lyrics Stanley Road - Paul Weller

A hazy mist hung down the street
The length of its mile as far as my eye could see
The sky so wide, the houses tall
So they seemed to be, so they seemed to me so small

And it gleamed in the distance
And it shone like the sun
Like silver and gold
It went on and on, it went on and on

Summer nights that seemed so long
Always call me back to return as I rewrite this song, oh yeah
The ghosts of night, the dreams of day
Make me swirl and fall and hold me in this way, this way

And it's still in the distance
And it shines like the sun
Like silver and gold
It goes on and on, it goes on and on
It goes on and on, yeah, it goes on and on

Rolling stock rocked me to sleep
Amber lights flashing 'cross the street
And on the corner a dream to meet
Yeah, it's going on and on

Rolling stock rocked me to sleep
Amber lights flashing 'cross the street
And on the corner a dream to meet
It goes on and on, going on and on
It goes on and on, yeah, it goes on and on
Yeah, on and on
