Driving down from the Highland Line
We’d done some gigs on the Clyde of the Tyne
They flew us in from a Hamburg strip
The taste of Dusseldorf still on our lips
And on the bus there’s a friend of mine
We go way back to the scene of the crime
Sit up front and share a cigarette
And try to remember what we tried to forget
He said, “Do you remember”
He said, “Do you recall”
I said, “Yeah, I remember
Oh, I remember it all”
Everytime the cold wind blows
Everytime I hear the sound of
Late night trains shunting down by the river
I remember Windy Town
We’ve come so far and we moved so fast
Making haste, see it all grow past
Round the world and around again
Up and down on that gravy train
Everytime the cold wind blows
Everytime I hear the sound
East coast crosswinds on the cold wet stone
I remember Windy Town
I’ve seen it all before
The freezing corners and the empty streets
The burning passion and the cold wet feet
Three tricky miles home every night
Dodging from the shadows underneath the overlights
No card for kissing and nowhere to go
Except inside each other and I love you so
I held your face as you shivered in the rain
Girl, I’ll always love you and I’ll love you again
Oh, everytime
Yeah, everytime
Everytime the cold wind blows
Everytime I hear the sound
Late night trains shunting down by the river
I remember Windy Town
Everytime the cold wind blows
Everytime I hear the sound
East coast crosswinds on the cold wet stone
I remember, I remember Windy Town
There it goes
There it goes
Windy Town
