Leafhound by: Saint Etienne

These are the lyrics for the song "Leafhound" by "Saint Etienne".

[intro sample:]
I wish they wouldn't laugh.


I've been driving for some time and the towns look the same.
This town feels very different, as though I've been here before.
This looks like the old school-yard where we both used to play.
and the kids in that building, they look just like our friends.


Something about this place makes me lose a grip on time and space.
I haven't seen you for years, but I feel you could be here right now.
And I know it's strange, yes I know it's strange, that you could be here with me now.


Days spent staring at highways, strange effects on the brain.
I can tell I'm not dreaming, I know I'm wide awake!
I'm sure I saw the theatre that burnt down in `83 -
and I followed the Harley that had your number-plate.


Something about this place makes me lose a grip on time and space.
I haven't seen you for years, but I feel you could be here right now.
And I know it's strange, yes I know it's strange, that you could be here with me now.


[Whispers:] There's something about this place...
