lyrics

Coronation St

Oh when Summer was a rare thing
Only June brought the strawberries late
Ripe red berries always sweet
So much to expect so much honesty
Now the day spits out a third world heat Y
ou’re out on the sidewalk of President St
Always some trouble for you to face
Constantly feeling out of place

Chorus
And the quiet wet rooves of Coronation St
Are pulling me
I’m here of my own free will
If this is me what do the others feel?
Remember the summers in your old home town
Now you’re burning under a midday sun
Five long years a refugee
It’s little wonder there’s not much relief
How long? How long/? How long?

Chorus
The quiet wet rooves of Coronation St
Are pulling me
I’m here of my own free will
I’m here of my own free will
If this is me what do the others feel?

You go where mercy is on the ground
You go to find where the water runs clean
You risked you’re life just to reach this place
For all the years you are the displaced

Chorus
And the quiet wet rooves of Coronation St
Are pulling me
I’m here of my own free will I’m here of my own free will
