lyrics

The Haar at the Edge of the World
The edge of the world
At the foot of the sea
So romanticised
By the dissatisfied
Where the buildings are grey
Where your time wastes away
Where the people complain
About social decay
Parochial longing
For community days
Blighted and blackened
By the immigrant ways

Didn’t you say that this place could get under your skin?
Oh
We say so many things,
although
some of it, some of it’s true

The edge of the world
Where beauty’s obscured
Where the haar clouds your view
Where there’s nothing to do
In October the clocks go back
And down comes this blanket of black
Till you pine for the sun
Like father like son

Didn’t you say that this place could get under your skin?
Oh
We say so many things,
although
some of it, some of it’s true

Didn’t you say that this place could get under your skin?
Oh
We say so many things,
although
some of it, some of it’s true

And the rain falls in sheets
Makes rivers of streets
Your views are obscured…
