Jonny Rowe – The Mainland

Jonny Rowe – The Mainland Lyrics

Artist: Jonny Rowe
Song: The Mainland

My My My
Three months more you’re out of time
Moving backwards down the line
These veils are getting far too weak

The words make sense but the feeling’s oh so bleak
My My My
What happened to that boy we knew?
The one who’s life was permablue

Picking moments from his lifetime
Making scrapbooks of hyperbole
Tryna seem like he’d lived
But you’ll be driving back to Bristol

The car will break down twice
And you’ll finally love the Beatles but you won’t play thеm out of spite
You’ll feel the sun without her shadow
Feel thе wind without her touch

And then you’ll see
That you’ll finally be free
My My My
The pear tree’s flowering once again

Falling far from the roots but that’s the trend
Chip off the block that’s not the tune
But you know that sheltered fruit don’t spoil so soon
My My My

You’re clouding meaning every line
Tryna write it so it rhymes
Stacking decks and planting jokers
Just lay your cards out in the open, broken

And we’ll see what you’re like
But you’ll be driving back to Bristol, the car will break down twice
And you’ll finally love the Beatles but you won’t play them out of spite
You’ll feel the sun without her shadow, feel the wind without her touch

And you’ll leave her on the mainland, and you’ll know that it is done
And you’ll see dolphins in the clouds again, you’ll stay up till it’s light
And you’ll have a beer for breakfast and you’ll move on with your life
And you’ll be drinking in the sunrise, run your fingers through your hair

And then you’ll see
That you’ll finally be free
