lyrics

You missed the last bus home the other day
I think it's safe to say that you were miles away
Were you too caught up in that paperback you were reading?
Are you convinced you know where the next chapter is leading?

The plot was tight, the main characters believable
To lose you now would be inconceivable
It feels like we're just turning over another page
You should mark it with an old bus ticket and come back to it another day

Now I can see the storm clouds gathering overhead
The thought of you leaving just fills my heart with dread
I'm gonna do whatever it takes to make you stay here instead
I'm gonna do whatever it takes, whatever it takes

Duly noted is what you said
Was your diary entry written down, or was it only in your head?
You tend to record almost every word for posterity
But from time to time I question your sincerity

And now the rain is coming down in sheets
The pavements look like glass on these city streets
I'm gonna do whatever it takes to make you admit defeat
I'm gonna do whatever it takes, whatever it takes
I'm gonna do whatever it takes, whatever it takes

about

The Wynntown Marshals Edinburgh, UK

Formed in Edinburgh in 2007, The Marshals tip their hat to The Jayhawks, Wilco, Drive-By Truckers, Tom Petty, Ryan Adams & Neil Young.

Their sound can loosely be described as ‘country rock' with powerpop hooks, but they love layered guitars, catchy choruses and have an unabashed belief in the power of rock music as a storytelling medium.
