Postcard From Paradise Lyrics
There's sand between my toes tonight
My heart is in my mouth
I'll hold on tight
To this fragile hope
That there's still time to start again
It's underneath the sea, remains
Runs his fingers through my hair
Still it rains
When the weather's calm
I'll build a castle on the shore
In the penny arcades
Will my luck run out
Through a hole in my pocket?
Does redemption lie beneath the pier?
The tide comes in
Through derelict streets and strangled orchards
With the smell of diesel and fear
There's sand between my toes tonight
My heart is in my mouth
I'll hold on tight
To this fragile hope
That there's still time to start again
In the penny arcades
Will my luck run out
Through a hole in my pocket?
Does redemption lie beneath the pier?
The tide comes in
Through derelict streets and strangled orchards
With the smell of diesel and fear
My heart is in my mouth
I'll hold on tight
To this fragile hope
That there's still time to start again
Runs his fingers through my hair
Still it rains
When the weather's calm
I'll build a castle on the shore
Will my luck run out
Through a hole in my pocket?
Does redemption lie beneath the pier?
Through derelict streets and strangled orchards
With the smell of diesel and fear
My heart is in my mouth
I'll hold on tight
To this fragile hope
That there's still time to start again
Will my luck run out
Through a hole in my pocket?
Does redemption lie beneath the pier?
Through derelict streets and strangled orchards
With the smell of diesel and fear

This song is completely brilliant, as is the rest of their Strangled Orchards album. I'll try to put a few more of theirs up here. :)
Thanks for posting this.
in my version, it sounds like "diesel oil and beer". I'm notoriously bad at understanding lyrics, though.
