lyrics

He was a big fella. One of those men who just takes up too much space in a room. Like the architecture wasn't built for him.
I told you that story of the time we took a night walk, went out well past the old house on the corner and got scared half to death when this great white horse came barrelling out of the darkness straight at us.
Never did figure out where that came from.

I wish you could have met him.
You'd have written a book about him I reckon.
About the time we climbed up the side of the castle until we got to the brick wall and realised we had no idea how to get down again.
Yeah we drank a lot of whisky in those days.
You'd have liked those sunrises.
Maybe not waking up in the middle of the roundabout though. That was a rough day. But there were a few of them.at the time.

If you look straight out across the sea from here, that direction, way out, past the curve of the earth, keep going 'til you hit land.
Then follow the twists and turns of the coast until you reach the deep harbour.
I reckon you'll find him there eventually, I reckon they build things bigger there.
