[00:01.54]Stornoway - Hook, Line, Sinker
[00:23.51]Cycling home from the station
[00:25.70]After the heat wave and a week in the fast lane
[00:28.57]The sun is down but the sky is soft and grey like a feather
[00:34.83]Taste the cool air as I cross the Thames river
[00:37.39]The water lies still and deep as a mirror
[00:40.07]Casting reflections and catching a momentary picture
[00:46.83]It won't be long 'til I'm with ya
[00:49.26]I feel you wheeling me hook, line, sinker
[00:50.06]
[00:58.05]Now the streetlights are flickering on
[01:00.43]As I race them along to the home straight
[01:02.92]Lock up my bike to the side gate, wondering what mood you are in
[01:09.05]You let me in and you lock us in
[01:11.74]You bite my lip and you say nothing
[01:14.86]As we start upon a silent rediscovery
[01:20.88]And now your fingers adjust me
[01:23.88]Tune me into the same shared frequency
[01:26.31]And I take hold of your shoulders
[01:29.44]Now there's nobody else and there's nothing else
[01:33.38]
[01:44.13]And we don't know our cell because we just abandon ourselves
[01:46.63]Now our bodies are taking over
[01:49.82]
[01:57.71]Our minds are drugged by the racing blood
[02:00.09]Pumping in our ears and our eyes and our tethered souls
[02:06.98]Grown in the back of a fast car
[02:09.68]Speeding over a shifting sand bar
[02:12.36]No way we can change our course
[02:14.74]Where this feeling will hurl me towards
[02:18.17]And it's now! And it's now!
[02:22.99]And it's now! And it's now! And it's now! And it's now!
[02:26.00]
[03:01.54]Now you raise your pupils skyward
[03:03.17]The sodium clouds move slow and silently
[03:06.73]Over the open skyline and into the twilight
[03:15.98]And as our limbs begin untwining
[03:17.35]The birds resume singing, the clock starts chiming
[03:20.54]And gravity grabs hold and pulls me back to earth
[03:26.92]
[03:29.91]Oh, when I look at you next to me
[03:34.78]With no fear and no insecurity
[03:37.66]They disappeared with the certainty
[03:40.79]That this feeling that courses through me
[03:44.10]Is love! This is love!
[03:46.16]This is love! This is love! This is love! This is love!
[03:51.83]This is love! This is love! This is love!
[03:55.33]Tune me, align yourself with me
[04:06.52]Take me in between the future and the past
[04:14.46]Tune me, align yourself with me
[04:18.52]Take me in between the future and the past
[04:26.91]Hold me, connect yourself with me
[04:31.98]Love me in between the future and the past
[04:37.67]Hold me, connect yourself with me
[04:41.98]Love me in between the future and the past
[04:59.30]
