Newhaven Dieppe Lyrics

Everyone else has gone But we remain a little longer I know that i'm losing you & losing will never do do what you did for me our transparent history soon will fall apart were back at the start & we can't help it You know why you're running Newhaven - Dieppe You know that I'll always be on your step But do you know why you're lonely tonight Tonight Tonight Everyone else has gone But we remain a little longer Between the paperbacks sleep the insomniacs
on sheets of black again With only yourself to blame For loss of self control & how youre looking old & no wonder You know why you're running Newhaven - Dieppe You know that I'll always be on your step But do you know why you're lonely tonight Tonight Tonight

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Newhaven Dieppe is a Ferry: http://www.tbreaks.com/newhaven_dieppe_ferry.htm

Though also, in 1952, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georges_Simenon published Affairs of Destiny which included 'Newhaven-Dieppe' and 'The Woman of the Grey House' http://www.xs4all.nl/~embden11/Engels/simenon.htm

Which makes alotta sense if you think of "between the paperbacks sleep the insomniacs"
