The Proclaimers - On Causewayside lyrics
[The Proclaimers - On Causewayside lyrics]
Did they build this tenement
With stone from Fife? Does it have a memory
Of an earlier life?
Before it was transported
To be cut with pride
And built up to let look down
On Causewayside
At the edge of the pavement
There stands a girl of no more than three
Years in this world looking up at her mother
With sheer delight for a moment
On Causewayside
The rats in the sewer and the autumn sky
Stand still for a moment and so do I
As we touch the eternal
Then the cold wind sighed and blowed it away
Down Causewayside
With stone from Fife? Does it have a memory
Of an earlier life?
Before it was transported
To be cut with pride
And built up to let look down
On Causewayside
At the edge of the pavement
There stands a girl of no more than three
Years in this world looking up at her mother
With sheer delight for a moment
On Causewayside
The rats in the sewer and the autumn sky
Stand still for a moment and so do I
As we touch the eternal
Then the cold wind sighed and blowed it away
Down Causewayside
