Scattered Black and Whites lyrics
Been climbing trees, I've skinned my knees
My hands are black
The sun is going down
She scruffs my hair in the kitchen steam
She's listening to the dream I weaved today
[ I'm weaving ]
Crosswords through the bathroom door
While someone sings the theme-tune to the news
And my sister buzzes through the room
Leaving perfume in the air
And that's what triggered this
I come back here from time to time
I shelter here some days
A highback chair, he sits and stares a thousand yards
And whistles marching band
Kneeling by and speaking up
He reaches out and I take a massive hand
Disjointed tales that flit between
Short trousers and a full dress uniform
And he talks of people ten years gone like I've known them all my life
Like Scattered Black and Whites
I come back here from time to time
I shelter here some days
Part of these releases
