sarah carton - beaches on the thames lyrics
[verse 1]
we’re dancin’ in the park so quiet
do you feel the guilt of the nation?
realise it’s time to go home
we head to the station
behind closed doors we’ll keep away+
from those darkest hour daily updates that say
we don’t know what we’re doin’
just pursuin’
[verse 2]
our new normal
you and me
grass by the town
by the green
hate we’ll push aside
staring out the window
find our healing in the light
that golden hour sunshine
as the fights in shops
begin to breathe the struggle
we leavе it with the people
[verse 3]
chaos through thе window
don’t play with the latches if it’s evil
don’t breathe in the chaos
it’s the devil not the sequel
noise settles
roamin’ down bare streets like i’m an angel
defining peace inside our fable
inside our homes, we’re free to roam
convert the house, create a temple
[chorus]
beaches on the thames
glowing in the street light
never could pretend
i could do the fast life
clearing off the water
maybe we can see
if you slow down with me
[verse 4]
stuck home
drag my arms around behind you
let my breath pass through your back
back to us
just isolation of two minds
yours and mine
[verse 5]
hangin’ out a lot
not always at work
not normal seeing you all+ways
always something else on my mind
but now it’s just you, and the tide
now it’s just you and the tide
[chorus]
beaches on the thames
glowing in the street light
never could pretend
i could do the fast life
clearing off the water
maybe we can see
if you slow down with me
[bridge]
and we’ll look there
and breathe in the calm of the water
as toxins in the lungs clear in the stream
and you beam (hmph)
and you beam
(clearing off the water)
(maybe we can see)
(if you slow down with me)
[chorus]
beaches on the thames
glowing in the street light
never could pretend
i could do the fast life
clearing off the water
maybe we can see
if you slow down with me
beaches on the thames (beaches on the thames)
glowing in the street light (glowing in the street light)
never could pretend (never could pretend)
i could do the fast life (i could do the fast life)
clearing off the water (clearing off the water)
maybe we can see
if you slow down with me
[outro]
beaches on the thames
glowing in the street light
never could pretend
i could do the fast life
clearing off the water
maybe we can see
slow down with me
