about

My favourite songs of the 70s and 80s all seemed to have a sense of optimism, a sense that the music was inclusive and belonged to everyone. Perhaps we overdosed on this feeling a bit, but I wanted to write a song that deliberately ignored all the cynicism I heard in current music, and instead was direct and uplifting in melody and lyric and was not part of some insider joke. When Callum joined the band, he had some great vocal arrangement ideas and it just had to have a sax solo on it.

lyrics

V1

She came in through the garden gate
With cheap and chilled champagne
It was some kind of second date
Spice and sugarcane


Chorus X 1
But its alright
And this loneliness won’t leave me tonight
Theres; no need to fight
Im moving on towards the light

V2

Didn’t want to hurt no-one
Needed time alone
But she messed up my living room
And left me on my own

Chorus X 2

But its alright
And this loneliness won’t leave me tonight
Theres; no need to fight
Im moving on towards the light.

Sax Solo

I keep writing break up songs
Just to find them coming through
I should stick to happy tunes
Whilst thinking about you

Chorus X 2

But its alright
And this loneliness won’t leave me tonight
Theres; no need to fight
Im moving on towards the light.
