lyrics
plain-clothes police are breathing
down the necks of those who are creeping
and i’m driving away from saturday night
and i’m going past the top of your street again tonight
and the streetlights, they flicker on and off
on and off, on and off
it’s the shannon road silent disco …
someone’s burning his old wardrobe on the green
and all the kids are laughing
barefooted on the grass
and the cold is coming in, it’s september again
and the streetlights, they flicker on and off
on and off, on and off
it’s the shannon road silent disco …
you’re not here anymore, you’re not here anymore
and all the apples on the tree, in the garden that was yours
are all falling to the floor
because you’re not here anymore, you’re not here anymore
and the streetlights, they still flicker on and off
on and off, on and off
(eadgbe, capo 2)
down the necks of those who are creeping
and i’m driving away from saturday night
and i’m going past the top of your street again tonight
and the streetlights, they flicker on and off
on and off, on and off
it’s the shannon road silent disco …
someone’s burning his old wardrobe on the green
and all the kids are laughing
barefooted on the grass
and the cold is coming in, it’s september again
and the streetlights, they flicker on and off
on and off, on and off
it’s the shannon road silent disco …
you’re not here anymore, you’re not here anymore
and all the apples on the tree, in the garden that was yours
are all falling to the floor
because you’re not here anymore, you’re not here anymore
and the streetlights, they still flicker on and off
on and off, on and off
(eadgbe, capo 2)
