Emma Pollock - Paper And Glue

Oh, look at the view
Look at the [bad word]  They've so much to do
Better than you
Better than take [bad word]  Nothing's ever new

And everything that looks so good from here
Living out a dream I've had for a year
Living out a dream I've had

Oh, the avenue
They're taking the trees down, And they're asking me and you
What can we do?
We can stand in a circle, Paying tribute with paper and glue

And everything that looks so good from here
Living out a dream I've had for a year
Living out a dream I've had

I was sure I'd move to heaven, But the feeling didn't last
We've never been forgiven, For the things done in the past
I often stand and stare at you, Protected by the glass
But I have nothing more to say to you, So please don't ever ask

Oh, hidden from view
The place that we keep from, How I miss those elegant lines
And the sun on the blinds
They beckon me down here, From what I know now are sunnier climbs

And everything that looks so good from here
Living out a dream I've had for a year
Living out a dream I've had

I was sure I'd move to heaven, But the feeling didn't last
We've never been forgiven, For the things done in the past
I often stand and stare at you, Protected by the glass
But I have nothing more to say to you, So please don't ever ask

I never knew that I had been here before [bad word] through houses, And breaking down doors
No matter where you go, They'll follow you, follow you, follow you

I was sure I'd move to heaven, But the feeling didn't last
We've never been forgiven, For the things done in the past
I often stand and stare at you, Protected by the glass
But I have nothing more to say to you, So please don't ever ask
