Lost and Found Lyrics
This is the hour when the city turns blue
This is the time of the lost and found
They loose the nutters in the Underground
Everything's far and nothing is true
When the streets don't feel like a neutral zone
Or the stranger's eye like a neutral glance
The very next step might blow your chance
Of finding your way home alone
Look sharp
It's like an opening door, look sharp
It's what we came here for, look sharp
You never know what the wind may blow
And your life's like the voice
in the room upstairs
Raised to someone you never hear
You can try and try, it never comes clear
Are you swearing or saying your prayers?
But the eyes are wide
that were shut for shame
Dogs in their backyards jump up and bark
Hull and Halifax wake in the dark
Like someone was calling their name
Look sharp
It's like an opening door, look sharp
It's what we came here for, look sharp
You never know what the wind may blow
This is the hour when the city turns blue
This is the time of the lost and found
There's no saviours hanging around
Keeping a watch over you
There's words on the wall and a stinking lift
I hold my breath to the 14th floor
Empty-handed I knock at your door
My empty hands are my gift, are my gift
Look sharp
It's like an opening door, look sharp
It's what we came here for, look sharp
You never know what the wind may blow
Look sharp
It's like an opening door, look sharp
It's what we came here for, look sharp
You never know what the wind may blow
You never know what the wind may blow
You never know what the wind may blow
You never know what the wind may blow
This is the time of the lost and found
They loose the nutters in the Underground
Everything's far and nothing is true
Or the stranger's eye like a neutral glance
The very next step might blow your chance
Of finding your way home alone
It's like an opening door, look sharp
It's what we came here for, look sharp
You never know what the wind may blow
in the room upstairs
Raised to someone you never hear
You can try and try, it never comes clear
Are you swearing or saying your prayers?
that were shut for shame
Dogs in their backyards jump up and bark
Hull and Halifax wake in the dark
Like someone was calling their name
It's like an opening door, look sharp
It's what we came here for, look sharp
You never know what the wind may blow
This is the time of the lost and found
There's no saviours hanging around
Keeping a watch over you
I hold my breath to the 14th floor
Empty-handed I knock at your door
My empty hands are my gift, are my gift
It's like an opening door, look sharp
It's what we came here for, look sharp
You never know what the wind may blow
It's like an opening door, look sharp
It's what we came here for, look sharp
You never know what the wind may blow
You never know what the wind may blow
You never know what the wind may blow
