Lyrics:
In a City like this, it's easy to miss, just what I'm not.
The future's tomorrow, to beg steal and borrow and tomorrow's all we've got.
But if you still need me, there's one place we can meet: Sun Street (X2)
Yesterday's done, today's what we've won, who would've thought?
When I saw you last you struggled to grasp, how I was caught.
But if you still need me, there's one place we can meet: Sun Street (X2)
If you're hunting me down, well I'm, well I'm still around.
But if you still need me, there's one place we can meet: Sun Street (X3)
In a City like this, it's easy to miss, just what I'm not.
The future's tomorrow, to beg steal and borrow and tomorrow's all we've got

A kind of comeback for Nigel and his songs, assisted by a band of great musicians, people and friends. Betty (the arranger of the choir vocals) told me recently she has 'a real emotional attachment to the song'. I think we all do.
