Lyrics

0:14East Coast trains run slow
0:19And Edinburgh seems cold
0:26For eighteen year olds
0:32Freedom
0:37But Leith feels like New York
0:44All the cars and talk
0:50Moving down the Walk
0:56All day
1:02So I'm lying in this hotel
1:08Hearing sirens and drunken fights
1:14But I paid cash to the angels
1:20Guarding me tonight
1:51So I'm lying in this hotel
1:57Hearing sirens and drunken fights
2:03And I paid cash to the angel
2:09Guarding me tonight
2:14Long days on my own
2:20Cry when I come home
2:26Have to carry on
2:32Somehow
2:38Leith could be New York
2:44All the cars and talk
2:51Moving down the Walk
2:59All day
East Coast trains run slow
And Edinburgh seems cold
For eighteen year olds
Freedom
But Leith feels like New York
All the cars and talk
Moving down the Walk
All day
So I'm lying in this hotel
Hearing sirens and drunken fights
But I paid cash to the angels
Guarding me tonight
So I'm lying in this hotel
Hearing sirens and drunken fights
And I paid cash to the angel
Guarding me tonight
Long days on my own
Cry when I come home
Have to carry on
Somehow
Leith could be New York
All the cars and talk
Moving down the Walk
All day
