Songtext

0:10At any given moment
0:12In the middle of a city
0:13There's a million epiphanies occurring
0:15And the blurring of the world beyond the curtain
0:17And the world within the person
0:18There's a quiver in the litter
0:19Of an alleyway
0:20He's singing
0:32People meet by chance
0:33Fall in love
0:34Drift apart again
0:35Underaged drinkers walk the park
0:36And watch the dark descend
0:37The workers watch the clocks
0:39Fiddle with their parker pence
0:40While the grandmothers
0:41Haggle with the market men
0:43Here where the kids play and laugh till they fall apart
0:46As kids chase and dancing to this mistakes and darkened rooms
0:49Too fast too soon
0:49Too slow too long
0:51Move around all day
0:52But we can't move on
0:54Is anybody else awake
0:56Will it ever be day again
0:59Is anybody else awake
1:01Will it ever be day again
1:04Overflowing plant pots
1:05Fence posts
1:06Decorated door numbers
1:07Motor black beneath a tarp
1:08Be un a pinto
1:10Goal posts painted on that green garish door
1:12There's a rainbow on that wheelie bin
1:14There's stickers on that window
1:15Smart flats
1:16Rough flats
1:17Can't get enough cat flats you know
1:19Seventeen cat flats
1:20Rich flats
1:20Broke flats
1:21New flats
1:22Old flats
1:22Luxury bespoke flats
1:24And this has got to be a joke flats
1:26Pensioners
1:27Toddlers
1:27Immigrants and Englishmen
1:28Families of six kids
1:30Single business woman
1:31Look
1:31Everybody's here trying to make a scraper living
1:33Of folks
1:34Breezes on the alley won't stand still sniffing
1:37Bare branches sway in the front garden
1:39The lion mouth door knocker flaps in the breeze
1:42Street lights glint on the beware of the dog signs
1:45The beer cans and crisps packets dance with the dead leaves
1:48It's 4 18 am
1:50At this very moment
1:51On this very street
1:53Seven different people in seven different flats
1:55Are wide awake
1:57They can't sleep
1:57Now
1:58Of all these people
1:59In all these houses
2:01Only these seven are awake
2:03And they shiver in the middle of the night
2:06Counting their sheepish mistakes
2:09Is anybody else awake
2:11Will it ever be day again
2:14Is anybody else awake
2:17Will it ever be day again
2:28We start on the corner
2:30With our backs against the wall
2:32Next to the old phone box
2:33Where the tramp leaves his bedding
2:35The road runs ahead of you
2:37Houses and flats either side
2:38Walk down
2:40Go past the yard with the caravans
2:42There behind the hedges
At any given moment
In the middle of a city
There's a million epiphanies occurring
And the blurring of the world beyond the curtain
And the world within the person
There's a quiver in the litter
Of an alleyway
He's singing
People meet by chance
Fall in love
Drift apart again
Underaged drinkers walk the park
And watch the dark descend
The workers watch the clocks
Fiddle with their parker pence
While the grandmothers
Haggle with the market men
Here where the kids play and laugh till they fall apart
As kids chase and dancing to this mistakes and darkened rooms
Too fast too soon
Too slow too long
Move around all day
But we can't move on
Is anybody else awake
Will it ever be day again
Is anybody else awake
Will it ever be day again
Overflowing plant pots
Fence posts
Decorated door numbers
Motor black beneath a tarp
Be un a pinto
Goal posts painted on that green garish door
There's a rainbow on that wheelie bin
There's stickers on that window
Smart flats
Rough flats
Can't get enough cat flats you know
Seventeen cat flats
Rich flats
Broke flats
New flats
Old flats
Luxury bespoke flats
And this has got to be a joke flats
Pensioners
Toddlers
Immigrants and Englishmen
Families of six kids
Single business woman
Look
Everybody's here trying to make a scraper living
Of folks
Breezes on the alley won't stand still sniffing
Bare branches sway in the front garden
The lion mouth door knocker flaps in the breeze
Street lights glint on the beware of the dog signs
The beer cans and crisps packets dance with the dead leaves
It's 4 18 am
At this very moment
On this very street
Seven different people in seven different flats
Are wide awake
They can't sleep
Now
Of all these people
In all these houses
Only these seven are awake
And they shiver in the middle of the night
Counting their sheepish mistakes
Is anybody else awake
Will it ever be day again
Is anybody else awake
Will it ever be day again
We start on the corner
With our backs against the wall
Next to the old phone box
Where the tramp leaves his bedding
The road runs ahead of you
Houses and flats either side
Walk down
Go past the yard with the caravans
There behind the hedges
