Текст песни People Watching - Edit - Sam Fender

I people watch on the way back home
Envious of the glimmer of hope
Gives me a break from feeling alone
Gives me a moment out of the ego
I used to feel so invincible
I used to feel there was a world worth dreaming of
Back of the gasworks screaming the song
Just the beauty of youth would quell my aching heart
Oh I feel so dark
Remembering

I people watch on the way back home
Everybody on the treadmill running
Under the billboards out of the heat
Somebody's darling's on the street tonight
I can't stop running
I see the whole town fall
I people watch on the way back home
I people watch on the way back home

I came back home after 7 years
Wide awake tracing tracks of her tears
Cornered the nurse to get the gist of it
I promised her I'd get her out of the care home
The place was falling to bits
Understaffed and overruled by callous hands
The poor nurse was around the clock
And the beauty of youth had left my breaking heart
But it wasn't hard
When you love someone
I stayed all night
Till you left this life
Cos that's just love

I people watch on the way back home
Everybody on the treadmill running
Under the billboards out of the heat
Somebody's darling's on the street tonight
I can't stop running
I see the whole town fall
I people watch on the way back home
I People watch on the way back home

Above the rain soaked garden of remembrance
Kittiwakes etched your initials in the sky
I fear for this crippled island
And the turmoil of the times
And I hold you in my heart till the day I die

I people watch on the way back home
Everybody on the treadmill running
Under the billboards out of the heat
Somebody's darling's on the street tonight
I can't stop running
I see the whole town fall
I people watch on the way back home x 6
