Chimneys, Moors and Me lyrics

I found myself in a wood 'Cause I could 'Cause I couldn't go anywhere else Little things in my head Hunker down and divide Little griefs around a fire Spreading outwards drifting far Scorching everything in sight Breathing out Our places don't fit the bill Too much concrete, urban spill Rawtenstall to Shibden Hall Chimneys, moors and me Too industrial, so much rain Bursts of green against the grey From the window of this train Bringing us home again Realised I'm still outdoors Flat topped hills and dry stone walls I am free on this burning moor River valleys with wooded sides Lunar landscape at Stoodley Pike Who decides where beauty lies Crowded peaks, or a home-made pie Mushy peas on the side When it's damp outside Our places don't fit the bill Too much concrete, urban spill Scammy Dam to Heptonstall Chimneys, moors and me Too industrial, so much rain Bursts of green against the grey From the window of this train Bringing us home again Fish 'n' chips without the sea Hankie of sand at the reservoir Millionaires without the cash Cheers, we're happy as we are How the wind feels on my face All the things I cannot say All the tears I cannot mend All the tears I cannot shed Hide the feeling from myself Beneath this hug of trees I'm breathing in Our places don't fit the bill Brutal beauty of mills and hills Black Dyke brass to Gracie Fields Chimneys, moors and me Water, grit, blood and dirt We're the proudest folk on earth Pennines pulsing through our veins Bringing us home again
