I can still remember when your city smelt exciting
I still get a whiff of that aroma now and then
Burglary and fireworks
The skies they were alighting
Accidents and toffee drops and thinking on the train
Oh, he was young, in the frost
No regard for the cost of saying his feelings
In the moment they were felt
And if he was calm like you
Locked up inside of your loops then he'd know for well
That all he had to say was
All he had to say was goodbye
Summertime made promises it knew it couldn't keep
The fairytale was climbing up a mountain far too steep
Colouring the pictures
With your loyal hand
Now I am craving heartbreak while you're making your demands
Oh, he was young, in the frost
No regard for the cost of saying his feelings
In the moment they were felt
And if he was calm like you
Locked up inside of your loops then he'd know for well
That all he had to say was
All he had to say was goodbye
If he was calm like you
Locked up inside of your loops then he'd know for well
That all he had to say was
All he had to say was goodbye
