The Sea (2021 Vocals Version) Lyrics by Bernard Butler

People Move On (Reissue Deluxe Edition)

2022

[Piano Intro]
[Verse 1]
This city's come between us, our hopes and all our plans
They flew a line of banners that I don’t understand
So we shuffled slowly sideways said we'd leave it all to chance
This city means more than just plans
[Verse 2]
I came across a photo-it fell into my hands
And there you stood before me, a model to my plans
So as though I'd always known you, I began to understand
That this city means more than I can
[Chorus]
And I can hear you calling me right to the sea
Oh I can hear you calling me
Right to the sea
[Verse 3]
This city’s come between us, our hopes and all our plans
It's likely no-one's seen us swing the truth between our hands
And it may not hold you dearly, or make you feel romance
But this city means more than I can
This city means more than I can
This city means more than I can
[Outro]
Than I can
Than I can
Than I can
