everything but the girl - twin cities (wildwood remix) lyrics

[verse 1]
now we’re in twin cities
where the mississippi rises and then falls
one is minneapolis
and the other though less famous is st. paul
there are stray dogs on the highway
and the local farmers moan about lack of rain
when the winds blew last winter i swear
england had another hurricane, hurricane

[chorus]
and we are twin cities
and we are that river
from the standing still
we will be delivered
[verse 2]
the last time in new york was with mandеla
and madonna and the mets
(last time i was in nеw york)
for icons of an era, well
that’s about as famous as it gets
(that’s what i call famous, babe)
i’ve seen cities full of ticker tape
and cotton trains through utah disappearing out of sight
but i’m standing in a city
that’s as pretty as an ocean in the night

[chorus]
and we are twin cities
and we are that ocean
from the standing still
we are set in motion

[bridge]
and no one calls me up to say
how long are you going to be away?
(are you ever coming back?)
yeah (are you ever coming back?)
no one calls me up to say
don’t let that life lead you astray
(don’t forget to come back)
yeah (don’t forget to come back)
[verse 3]
they were rioting in detroit on the night
the pistons won it back to back (won it back to back)
i was out of there the next day
and i only had just two bags to pack

[chorus]
and we are twin cities
and we are one river
from the standing still
we will be delivered
and we are twin cities
and we are one ocean
from the standing still
we are set in motion

[outro]
yeah
we are twin cities
we are one river, yeah (we are twin cities)
one ocean
we are twin cities, yeah (we are twin cities)
we are one river, yeah
oh, one ocean (we are twin cities)
