Stanley Road - Paul Weller

A hazy mist hung down the street

The length of it’s mile

As far as my eye could see

The sky so wide, the houses tall

Or so they seemed to be

So they seemed to me so small

And it gleamed in the distance

And it shone like the sun

Like silver and gold — it went on and on x2

The summer nights that seemed so long

Always call me back to return

As I rewrite this song

The ghosts of night, the dreams of day

Make me swirl and fall and hold me in their sway

And it’s still in the distance

And it shines like the sun

Like silver and gold — it goes on and on

The rolling stock rocked me to sleep

Amber lights flashing 'cross the street

And on the corner… a dream to meet going on and on

On & on, on & on…
