Seven Sisters Road

Meet me by the river when the sun is in the west
Leave behind your history - we’ll make up the rest
And by the time the sun is almost gone
I’ll feel as if I’ve known you all along
Maybe in the morning when the sun is on the rise
I’ll look at you and see myself reflected in your eyes
And I’ll wonder why you took so long to find
I’ve waited all this time
And never saw the signs

There’s a hundred different ways that you can go
From the Angel to the Seven Sister’s Road
And if you call me I’ll come
I’ll be ready to run
Like an angel down the Seven Sister’s Road

I don’t know what’s wrong with all the people that I meet
‘Cos when I look at you I know I’ve got the city at my feet
And it seems to me I know where I belong
I know I wasn’t wrong
To wait for you so long
So meet me by the river, I’ll be waiting there for you
Promise me you’ll be there, you know there’s nothing we can’t do
And it seems to me the way the cards are stacked
We won’t be looking back

There’s a hundred different ways that you can go
From the Angel to the Seven Sister’s Road
And if you call me I’ll come
I’ll be ready to run
Like an angel down the Seven Sister’s Road
