WINDY TOWN Lyrics

(James Harris III, Terry Lewis)

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 

He said, "do you remember" 

He said, "do you recall" 

I said, "Yeah I remember 

Oh I remember it all" 

*Everytime the cold wind blows 

Everytime I hear the sound 

Late night trains 

Shuntin' down by the river 

I remember Windy Town 

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 

** Everytime the cold wind blows 

Everytime I hear the sound 

East coast crosswinds 

On the cold wet stone 

I remember Windy Town 

I've seen it all before 

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 

Nocard 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 ALLWAYAS LOVE YOU

AND I´LL love you again 

Oh everytime, yeah everytime 

(*Repeat) 

(** Repeat) 

There it goes, there it goes 

Windy Town
