This is a low

[billyskank]

And into the sea
Goes pretty England and me
Round the bay of Biscay
And back for tea

Hit traffic on the Dogger bank
Up the Thames to find a taxi rank
Sail on by with the tide
And go to sleep
And the radio says...

This is a low
But it won't hurt you.
When you're alone,
It will be there with you,
Finding ways to stay solo.

On the Tyne, Forth and Cromarty,
Theres a low in the high forties
And saturdays locked away on the pier
Not fast enough, dear.
And on the Malin head,
Blackpool looks blue and red
And the queen, shes gone round the bend,
Jumped off lands end.
And the radio says...

This is a low,
But it won't hurt you.
When you're alone,
It will be there with you.
This is a low,
But it won't hurt you.
When you're alone,
It will be there with you,
Finding ways to stay solo.

2. Ooohh, now you've got me in an English lyrics mood....

...

Im going up the `pool from down the smoke below
To taste my mums jam sarnies and see our aunty flo.
The candyfloss salesman watches ladies in the sand
Down for a freaky weekend in the hope that theyll be meeting
Mister universe.

The iron tower smiles down upon the silver sea
And along the golden mile theyll be swigging mugs of tea.
The politicians there whove come to take the air
While posing for the daily press
Will look around and blame the mess
On edward bear.

Therell be bucket, spades and bingo, cockles, mussels, rainy days,
Seaweed and sand castles, icy waves.
Deck chairs, rubber dinghies, old vests, braces dangling down,
Sun-tanned stranded starfish in a daze.

Were going up the `pool from down the smoke below
To taste my mums jam sarnies and see our aunty flo.
The candy floss salesman watches ladies in the sand
Down for a freaky weekend in the hope that theyll be meeting
Mister universe.

Therell be buckets, spades and bingo, cockles, mussels, rainy days,
Seaweed and sand castles, icy waves,
Deck chairs, rubber dinghies, old vests, braces dangling down,
Sun-tanned stranded starfish in a daze.

Oh blackpool,
Oh blackpool.

9. Awww Billy

Sounds like you need extra big

This is a low,
But it won't hurt you.
When you're alone,
It will be there with you.
This is a low,
But it won't hurt you.
When you're alone,
It will be there with you,
Finding ways to stay solo.

^^^^ could have been written for me. My weekend was pure solo, pure solitude.

[crim son]

13. I'm sorry.

A long weekend trip? Internet down? Unexpected visitors?

:hug: :hug: :hug:

[billyskank]

14. I hope so

Just, when left to fret alone, I always fear the worst. I am a natural pessimist.

[crim son]

16. Me too, sweetie.

I'll fret with you.

[billyskank]

17. Maybe it's finished anyway

Another friend said: "If you want to have a relationship it should be equal and mutually respectful."

This rang true with me.

Of course I should be telling her this, but how can I when she is incommunicado? That is the problem.

[CrownPrinceBandar]

15. I love that song...

Prolly one of my favorite Blur tunes.
