Saint Etienne - Leafhound lyrics

I wish they wouldn't laugh

I've been driving for some time and
The towns look the same
This town feels very different as
Though I've been here before
This looks like the old school yard
Where we both used to play
And the kids in that building
They look just like our friends

Something about this place makes me lose
A grip on time and space
I haven't seen you for years but I
Feel you could be here right now
And I know it's strange
Yes I know it's strange
That you could be here with me now

Days spent staring at highways
Strange effects on the brain
I can tell I'm not dreaming
I know I'm wide awake!
I'm sure I saw the theatre
That burnt down in '83
And I followed the Harley
That had your number-plate

Something about this place makes me lose
A grip on time and space
I haven't seen you for years but I
Feel you could be here right now
And I know it's strange
Yes I know it's strange
That you could be here with me now

There's something about this place
