Quick recording and fiddling about while baby asleep but you get the gist.
Written on a train heading east when it's always better to head west..
Thoughts welcome

Facing backwards on the train
Gives me headaches, all the same
At least I'll see the sunrise
At least I'll see the sunrise 
See your face among the clouds 
Like a friend lost in a crowd
I'm blinded by the sunrise
blinded by the sunrise

Chorus:
And I'm westward ho
Snaking back across forgotten moors
Just a one man show 
I'll be left bereft, becalmed, unburdened in the arms of, well, who knows?

Kite gets hounded by the crowds
A taw cross twisted by the blows
Bloodied in the sunrise
Bloodied in the sunrise
Swifts go screaming down the lanes
Silent shadows through the pane
Like kisses in the sunrise
Like kisses in the sunrise

left my book upon the floor
Of your bedroom as you swore 
We'd never see the sunrise
We'd never see the sunrise, again
So I don't know how the story ends
Happy endings just depend
On how you see the sunrise
On how you see the sunrise
