[00:00.24]Next dedicated song to uh, my very dear friend Crick, it’s his birthday, it would be...if you were still here, sweet Crick
[00:10.50]
[00:33.43]There were blue skies in my city today
[00:37.56]
[00:40.62]Ev'rything was sinking
[00:43.05]Said snow would come on Sunday
[00:45.82]
[00:46.56]The old school was due and the traffic grew
[00:53.17]Upon the Westway
[00:54.96]Where I stood watching comets lonesome trails
[01:00.39]
[01:02.38]Shining up above me the jet fuel it fell
[01:07.16]
[01:09.15]Down to earth where the money always comes first
[01:14.41]And the sirens sing
[01:16.74]
[01:36.97]Bring us the day they switch off the machines
[01:41.44]
[01:43.86]'Cause men in yellow jackets putting adverts inside my dreams
[01:49.32]An automated song and the whole world gone
[01:54.72]
[01:55.54]Fallen under the spell of the distance between us when we communicate
[02:02.81]
[02:04.99]Still picking up shortwave
[02:07.12]Somewhere they're out in space
[02:11.64]It depends how you're wired when the night's on fire
[02:16.63]Under the Westway
[02:19.12]
[02:38.97]Now it's magic arrows hitting the bull
[02:42.92]
[02:45.11]Doing one eighty still standing at last call
[02:51.81]When the flags coming down
[02:53.87]
[02:54.81]And the Last Post sounds
[02:57.30]
[02:57.89]Just like a love song
[03:00.24]
[03:00.76]For the way I feel about you
[03:04.28]
[03:04.75]Paradise not lost it's in you
[03:10.35]
[03:12.62]On a permanent basis I apologize
[03:18.24]
[03:19.13]But I am going to sing
[03:22.84]
[03:27.83]Hallelujah
[03:29.39]
[03:32.70]Sing it out loud and sing it to you
[03:36.10]
[03:38.10]Am I lost out at sea
[03:40.52]
[03:41.33]'Til a tide wash me up off the Westway
[03:49.05]
