This Town (Cumbria Rock Festival) - Marillion

作曲：Ian Mosley/john Helmer/mark Kelly/peter Trewavas/steve Hogarth/steve Rothery

Let's dance

Come on

This is This Town

Hey hey hey hey hey

The cars leave trails of hot

And cold light inside my head

Like burned in long exposure pictures

The wheels spin slowly backwards

Strobing in the amber light

And the rain comes down

And washes my brain

But it don't get clean

This town has turned me

Into what I have become

This town dresses me up

Like a stranger

This town performs in the window

Like the ultimate gift

This town takes us down

I feel like I'm losing you to this town

We were saving our money

For half of our lives

We were saving our dreams

We came to this place

To make the chances real

In the big city

But I've been counting the days

I've been watching you change

And I can feel it dying

The noise outside holds you

In its arms

Like a lamb to a lion

And down there somewhere

Among the noise

The magazine dolls

And the big money boys

Move silently on their easy heels

They move silently

On their greasy wheels

This town has turned me

Into what I have become

This town dresses you up

Like a stranger

This town hangs around

In the doorway

And tells me I'm late

This town takes us down

Takes us down

I feel like I'm losing you to this town

The morning breaks

And I watch you awake

And this town takes you down

Away from me again
