Lyrics
We used to walk Mancunian Way
We used to walk on Mancunian Way
We used to swagger we used to sway
We used to exude confidence and style
Up until the lights took us away
Until external factors changed our path
Do you know what you meant to me?
Reflecting on the significance of the relationship
We used to think we were the bomb
We thought highly of ourselves
Then someone left a real one
Then reality struck, and we faced a harsh truth
We stayed indoors as the rain come
Retreated indoors during difficult times
Back then it made no sense to me
At that time, the situation seemed perplexing
I'm missing you face, your beautiful face
Expressing longing for a loved one
It's funny that I recall they gave us the keys to the cit, but they don't fit anything
Recalling being entrusted with opportunities that led nowhere
But I'm coming away.
Determined to make a departure
I hear you calling
Hearing a call to return
I came back running
Responding energetically to the call
Forgot that feeling
Forgetting the joy of the past
Been so log coming
After a prolonged absence, the feeling returns
They tried to stop her
Facing attempts to hinder progress
She just got stronger
Becoming stronger despite challenges
I'm driving home again
Returning home once again
Back down Mancunian Way
Back on Mancunian Way
I just forgot how it is to feel
Forgetting how it feels to be alive
To dance and move and keep it real
Reconnecting with the essence of life
Been lying down foot ten long years
Lying dormant for an extended period
But I was there and it feels like yesterday
Recalling past experiences as if they were recent
I'm missing you face, your beautiful face
Expressing longing for a loved one (repeated)
It's funny that I recall you came when I was pretty, but that don't work no more
Remembering a time of attractiveness that has faded
But I'm coming anyway.
Determined to return despite challenges
Now I stand here in front of you
Standing in front with a newfound clarity
I know now what I'm gonna do
Understanding one's purpose and course of action
My shoulders low, but my head is high
Facing difficulties but maintaining resilience
I'm gonna bring this town alive
Committing to revive the town
Through this acidic rain
Metaphorically facing challenges represented by acidic rain
I'm gonna come back to life again.
Determined to rejuvenate and come back to life
