I don't recognise my town, they keep pulling it down
And building new student flats and expensive hotels and shops
The streets where I grew up are now filled with builders' trucks
Replacing old with new, making profit for the few 

I'm sitting on Arthur's Seat, looking down at the lights of Leith
With the old town full of dreams, the dreams we're losing

We've got trams that we don't need and a massive debt to feed
The planners don't give a thought to the damage that they brought
They sold our Meadowbank, it's just money in the bank
When all the trees are gone, it won't help anyone

Chorus	I'm sitting on Arthur's Seat, looking down at the lights of Leith
With the old town full of dreams, the dreams we're losing

Where are the doctors, where are the jobs
Where are the schools, the community hubs
Where are the homes for the workers to stay
It's all gone upmarket, but not what they pay

I'm sitting on Arthur's Seat, looking down at the lights of Leith
With the old town full of dreams, the dreams we're losing
I'm sitting on Arthur's Seat, looking down at the lights of Leith
With the old town full of dreams, the dreams we're losing
The dreams we're losing
