British Sea Power — Cleaning Out the Rooms lyrics

Lyrics

Where life is good in a way
Swept away upon our hearts, in cold coal ceremonial
On a rainy day, hang it up Get the vacuum and suck it in Cleaning out the rooms, I’ll clean it up Dark cloud, drifting out of view
I’ll never know, she’ll be coming soon, that is all
I’ll wake up in a new life, ship shape and shoe shine
Cleaning out the rooms, I’ll clean it up She’ll be coming soon
Drifting into view, way in the west, white cloud
If everybody knew, I never knew, she’ll be coming soon
I’ll wake up in a new life, down by the seaside
In a new life, down by the seaside
Cleaning out the room, I’ll clean it up Dark clouds, she’ll be coming soon
Down the chimney, out the window, that is all
