Calm Like You

I can still remember when your city smelt exciting
I still get a whiff of that aroma now and then
Burglary and fireworks
The skies they were alighting
Accidents and toffee drops
And thinking on the train

He was young, in the frost
No regard for the cost of saying his feelings in moments they were felt
And if he was calm like you
Locked up inside of your loops
Then he’d know full well
That all he had to say was goodbye

Summertime made promises
It knew it couldn’t keep
The fairytale was climbing up a mountain far too steep
Colour in the pictures with your royal hands
Now I am craving heart-break
While you’re making your demands
