Windy Town

[Verse 1]

Driving down from the Highland Line

We'd done some gigs on the Clyde of the Tyne

They flew us in from a Hamburg strip

The taste of Dusseldorf still on our lips

And on the bus, there's a friend of mine

We go way back to the scene of the crime

Sit up front and share a cigarette

And try to remember what we tried to forget

[Pre-Chorus]

He said, "Do you remember?"

He said, "Do you recall?"

I said, "Yeah, I remember

Oh, I remember it all"

[Chorus]

Every time the cold wind blows

Every time I hear the sound

Late-night trains

Shuntin' down by the river

I remember Windy Town

[Verse 2]

We've come so far and we moved so fast

Makin' haste, see it all grow past

'Round the world and around again

Up and down on that gravy train

[Chorus]

Every time the cold wind blows

Every time I hear the sound

East Coast crosswinds

On the cold wet stone

I remember Windy Town

[Instrumental Break]

[Interlude]

I've seen it all before

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

The freezing corners and the empty streets

The burning passion and the cold wet feet

Three tricky miles home every night

Dodging from the shadows, underneath the overlights

No card for kissin' and nowhere to go

'Cept inside each other and I love you so

I held your face as you shivered in the rain

Girl, I'll love you again, oh every time, yeah every time

[Chorus]

Every time the cold wind blows

Every time I hear the sound

Late-night trains

Shuntin' down by the river

I remember Windy Town

Every time the cold wind blows

Every time I hear the sound

East coast crosswinds

On the cold wet stone

I remember Windy Town

[Outro]

There it goes, there it goes

Windy Town
