Belfast city
Streets outside at closing time
People pushing people
Slamming doors along the taxi-ranks
It's quarter past two and not a clue what I'm supposed to do
What about you
The Policeman says
Boys will be boys
But the girls make all the noise
That's when I saw you
Walking up the steps of 42 Botanic avenue
Your heels click the concrete to the beat of many worn out tunes
On Botanic Avenue
Car lights fill your eyes
Smoky breath
Frosty nights
Under Belfast skies
Now the guys think I'm wild
Cause they know I'm inclined
To just run to you
Is all that it seems that I can do
So do me a favour believe
In what we're supposed to be
What we're supposed to be
I know
We're lost in a scene of outsiders dreams
But do me a favour believe
In what we're supposed to be
What we're supposed to be
Five years later
You're my only valentine
Our turn key flat in Ballyhac
Barbecuing out the back on St Patricks day
Wearing shackles of our youth like some ironic melancholic truth
From Botanic Avenue
Lets take a drive
Down the golden mile
Blasting Van here comes the night
From the West to the East-side
Young lovers often meet on every corner of our cities streets
Just like the night we set alight Botanic Avenue
Aw Botanic Avenue
Car lights fill your eyes
Smoky breath
Frosty nights
Under Belfast skies
Now the guys think I'm wild
Cause they know I'm inclined
To just run to you
Is all that it seems that I can do
So do me a favour believe
In what we're supposed to be
What we're supposed to be
I know
We're lost in a scene of outsiders dreams
But do me a favour believe
In what we're supposed to be
What we're supposed to be
Belfast city
Streets outside at closing time
