& she’s walking on the edge of a knife
& she knows it’s the death of her
Sarah you live & you learn you’re invisible
& she’s walking on the edge of a crowd
Late at night you can never tell
Town from town
Sounds of England swallow you down
Makes you want to laugh
Could a heaven on earth be ours
Here & now?
& she says «what’s in my palm?
Read between the lines
Give me something to savour
Can you do that
Cos I’ll believe anything»
& I say
When you ‘re hoping for some more from your life
Shouldn’t wonder you’ve had enough
& in my town
Sounds of England swallow you down
& a heaven on earth is all ours
But not now
I tell you when a heaven on earth is all ours
Come on down
