LYRICS:
I'm going back to the time when we owned this town
Down Powder Mill Lane, in the battlegrounds
We were friends and lovers and clueless clowns
I didn't know I'd be finding out now I was torn from you
When we thought about things we were gonna do
We were wide eyed dreamers and wiser too
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
I'm begging you for some sign, but you've still got nothing to say
Or I'm turning back home and I'm walking away
I'm a better man now than I was that day
Go down to the rides on East Parade,
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
Watch night coming down on the Sovereign Light Café
Go down to the bandstand on the pier
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café
I wheel my bike off the train,
Up the North Trade Road,
Look for you on Marley Lane
In every building, every streetlight
Oh why did we ever go so far from home?
You keep on leaving me mile long traces of who you are
You can get a big house and a faster car
You can run away boy, but you won't go far
Let's go down to the rides on East Parade,
by the lights of the Palace Arcade
Watch night going down on the Sovereign Light Café
Stroll down to the bandstand on the pier
Watch the drunks and the lovers appear
Take time, just the stars at the Sovereign Light Café
La la la la la la la laYeah,
I'm going where the people know my name
La la la la la la la laYeah,
I'm going where the people know my name

If you come to Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex, UK and walk along the seafront you will find the sovereign light cafe. Not much to look at though. I've been there a few times, it's only 5 minutes walk from my house.
it's so cute you made a blog about tim rice-oxley even though you don't know him<3<3<3
it's so sweet he's touched your heart so much<3
Song is inspired from trips of Tim and Richard from Battle and down the beach in Bexhill. Because they, like so many people who enjoy the beach life, sit and enjoy the food and the scenery.
Myself and my family have been one of them, we lived there for over two and a half year. Therefore, this song really special in my mind. Raises nostalgia.
The filming took place in Bexhill in May 2012, the same town.
