The Levels Songtext
von Ben Watt

The estate agent's been over
I've resurfaced the driveway
I'm selling flowers out on the pavement
Made it nice round the place
I'm up for selling the business
My heart isn't in it
Without your face over the counter
Without your face
Some nights I drive out on the Levels
Through the village, past the church where we got married
And I can see for miles


And out there is the future
But what's this standing in my way?
Right now it's my past
And it's not moving fast
Some nights I'm out there on the Levels
And the ditches and the fields are flooded by the river
And I can see for miles

And I know it's only daylight that we all walk through
And everyone has wounds that heal with time
And I'll get over mine

Some nights I'm out there on the Levels
And we're talking like we used to, but it's me who does the talking
And I'm out there for a while
And I can see for miles
