Under The Westway letra

There were blue skies in my city today
Ev'ry thing was sinking
Said snow would come on Sunday
The old school was due
And the traffic grew
Upon the Westway
Where I stood watching comets lonesome trails
Shining up above me
The jet fuel it fell
Down to earth
Where the money always comes first
And the sirens sing

Bring us the day they switch off the machines
'Cause men in yellow jackets
Putting adverts inside my dreams
An automated song
And the whole world gone
Fallen under the spell of the distance
Between us when we communicate
Still picking up short wave
Somewhere they're out in space
It depends how you're wired
When the night's on fire
Under the Westway

Now it's magic arrows hitting the bull
Doing one eighty
Still standing at last call
When the flags coming down
And the Last Post sounds
Just like a love song
For the way I feel about you
Paradise not lost
It's in you
On a permanent basis
I apologize
But I am going to sing

Hallelujah
Sing it out loud and sing it to you
Am I lost out at sea
'Till a tide wash me
Up off the Westway
