Sam Fender – People Watching (Lyrics)

I people-watch on the way back home
Envious of the glimmer of hope
Gives me a break from feeling alone
Gives me a moment out of the ego
I used to feel so invincible
I used to feel there was a world worth dreamin’ of
Back in the Gasworks, screamin’ the song
Just the beauty of youth would quell my aching heart
Oh, I feel so dark rememberin’
Oh, my heart, I feel so dark rememberin’

I people-watch on the way back home
Everybody on the trеadmill, runnin’
Under the billboards, out of the hеat
Somebody’s darling’s on the street tonight
Oh, I can’t stop runnin’
I see the whole town fall
I people-watch on the way back home
I people-watch on the way back home

I came back home after seven years
Wide awake, tracing tracks of her tears
Cornered the nurse to get the gist of it
I promised her I’d get her out of the care home
The place was fallin’ to bits
Understaffed and overruled by callous hands
The poor nurse was around the clock
And the beauty of youth had left my breaking heart
But it wasn’t hard when you love someone
Oh, I stayed all night till you left this life ’cause that’s just love

I people-watch on the way back home
Everybody on the treadmill, runnin’
Under the billboards, out of the heat
Somebody’s darling’s on the street tonight
Oh, I can’t stop runnin’
I see the whole town fall
I people-watch on the way back home
I people-watch on the way back home

I people-watch on the way back home
I people-watch on the way back home
I people-watch on the way back home
I people-watch on the way back home

Above the rain-soaked Garden of Remembrance
Kittiwakes etched your initials in the sky
Oh, I fear for this crippled island and the turmoil of the times
And I’ll hold you in my heart till the day I die
Oh

I people-watch on the way back home
I people-watch on the way back home
I people-watch on the way back home
I people-watch on the way back home
