Yellow lights outside the Gold Arcade,
On the seafront just down from the Stade,
And all the patrons sit there with a bowl on their knees,
Full of coins, full of coins.
And they’re surprised that they’re not winning,
And the modern mirrors on the walls are just watching them go down,
Surprised that they’re not winning,
Even when they do go home with a pink Panda Bear,
Or the jackpot five pound note.
I’d like to set the place alight screaming ‘HEY!”
“We’re on a planet that is circling round the sun!”
They couldn’t tell me that tonight,
Not from the strength of light that were sending up,
To where the stars used to be,
The stars used to be,
The stars used to be,
Before.
Look around this house,
The carpet and the walls,
And wonder just how many people have lived here,
Just like me before,
The morning comes and goes,
And I’m ashamed that I don’t see it anymore,
I used to wait for dawn,
Now I just sit here on my own.
And I still see the same,
Faces in the street,
But they are older now,
They are older now,
They are older now,
Just like me.
Still walking out alone,
Still passing gamblers in their temporary clothes,
Hid in their jacket collars, on their mobile phones,
And I’m staring at the one who looks like you the most,
You used to be so strong,
Sold at a market stall on Saturdays with all your stock,
Now those times are gone,
And I can’t help you anymore,
Or less,
Than anyone.
And the stories that you weave,
Don’t matter anymore – least of all to me,
But you tell them all the same,
And in a look that lasts an hour of a second,
I can see where the stars used to be.
I can see where the stars used to be.
