about

Relationships change. We like jangly guitar and Scottish bands such as Teenage Fanclub and Belle and Sebastian. Let's bring it together.

lyrics

We open on a Main Street a young couple
Linked in hand and step
She’s looking up at him and saying
Something about buying him a cardigan

And every step I take to you
Is one step further from being them
From giddy sighs and all-day highs
Outside the chemist, kissing at the lights

It started with cats and Scottish bands
Three years later still holding hands
We never know for how long
But I’m happy to be sharing your colds

You picked me up one day from work
And we just drove to Bellbird Grove
It was raining and we were alone
And we ran from the car to a picnic shelter

You pulled from your green hand- bag
an expensive wine bottle and two metal cups

It started with cats and Scottish bands
Three years later still holding hands
We never know for how long
But I’m happy to be sharing your colds

Sometimes when I am falling asleep
I look at you and smile in the dark
We won’t ever find again
What we found that night in the park

Between the washing and the washing up
Maybe we can find something else

It started with cats and Scottish bands
Three years later still holding hands
We never know for how long
But I’m happy to be sharing your colds
