We close out our live sets with this one, which we developed from Jack’s synth bass line and repeating piano riff. The song is about wanting to flee the grey skies of Northern Europe for Barcelona, Montpellier - wherever its not twatting it down with rain, basically.

lyrics

You took a trip around the bay,
But couldn’t slip the Northern grey,
So waited for another day,
And wound up in Montpellier,

Or could have been Montjuic,
Or Montmartre where you viewed it,
The Northern fade to shades of grey and black,
Inside you loosed it,

Your limbs on fire,
Like filled with fever,
Could carry you to coasts,
Could send you south to southern shores,

Enough stone shadows,
And sodden slate skies,
Can we project some silhouettes,
In turquoise and violet,

Enough stone shadows,
And sodden slate skies,
Can we project some silhouettes,
In turquoise and violet,
