The Lucksmiths - Transpontine lyrics

Anchors away! Granted one last summer's day We watched the sunset silhouette the western suburbs Across the bay And when the sky was monochrome We drained our drinks and headed home Past bright-eyed boys in business suits Tourists, where once were prostitutes And you proposed a promenade neither of us knows Follow the yellow brick apartment blocks The Californian bungalows But remember when you're wandering alongside The river has a right side and a wrong side Remember when you're wandering alongside The river has a right side and a wrong side I confess It's been a year, or little less Since last I sallied forth From the friendly confines of the north But a single seagull's cry hangs in the quiet suburban sky And for a moment I'm amazed I ever claimed to hate this place But remember when you're wandering alongside The river has a right side and a wrong side Just remember when you're wandering alongside The river has a right side and a wrong side
