Song | The Turns We Took |
Artist | Tindersticks |
Album | Live at Glasgow City Halls 5th October 2008 |
The turns we took to get here | |
The turns we took to get here | |
The turns we took to get here | |
But the ending is it so near? | |
'Cause we set out so long ago … | |
I can't remember how or why we took that road | |
I can't remember how … | |
Sometimes I wonder about | |
(The turns we took to get here.) | |
And I wander backwards through my mind | |
(The turns we took to get here.) | |
Always that feckless youth, | |
Taking me down roads I never wanted to travel | |
Is that how I got here? | |
But our song is carried on the wind | |
And we chase so hard we fall | |
She sees me down upon my knees | |
And says 'Hey Charlie boy, it's time to come on home, | |
It's time to stop pretending.' | |
Somewhere in my house is a piece of paper | |
(The turns we took to get here.) | |
A story that brings us to this place | |
(The turns we took to get here.) | |
And I follow back down that line. | |
('Cause we set out so long ago …) | |
Always that boy, scared of his own shadow, | |
(The turns we took to get here.) | |
Always that boy, | |
(The turns we took to get here.) | |
Turning me off, turning me on | |
The turns we took to get here | |
The turns we took to get here | |
But the ending is it so near? | |
The turns we took to get here | |
Ohhh … | |
The turns we took to get here | |
… |
The turns we took to get here | |
The turns we took to get here | |
The turns we took to get here | |
But the ending is it so near? | |
' Cause we set out so long ago | |
I can' t remember how or why we took that road | |
I can' t remember how | |
Sometimes I wonder about | |
The turns we took to get here. | |
And I wander backwards through my mind | |
The turns we took to get here. | |
Always that feckless youth, | |
Taking me down roads I never wanted to travel | |
Is that how I got here? | |
But our song is carried on the wind | |
And we chase so hard we fall | |
She sees me down upon my knees | |
And says ' Hey Charlie boy, it' s time to come on home, | |
It' s time to stop pretending.' | |
Somewhere in my house is a piece of paper | |
The turns we took to get here. | |
A story that brings us to this place | |
The turns we took to get here. | |
And I follow back down that line. | |
' Cause we set out so long ago | |
Always that boy, scared of his own shadow, | |
The turns we took to get here. | |
Always that boy, | |
The turns we took to get here. | |
Turning me off, turning me on | |
The turns we took to get here | |
The turns we took to get here | |

The turns we took to get here | |
Ohhh | |
The turns we took to get here | |
