When We Came to Dover (Words/Music - Justin Lavash)

Originally recorded on demo album Slide (2010). Recorded in concert for Live in Prague 2 (2018)

Well they're coming down

You can feel it on the underground

On the edge of town

They're closing all the factories

closing all the factories down

I've got a girl back home

She said she's going to wait for me

And I've been saving hard

Enough to start a family

Enough to start a family

But she told my brother

She'd found someone new

Though she loves me still

And if that girl don't break my heart

I know that nothing will

Well, where I come from

It's just friends and family

But in this big old town

It's just money, man

Money and misery

And when we came to Dover it was raining hard

God knows, it's raining still

And if that girl don't go and break my heart

I know that nothing will

(break)

And they told me tomorrow

They're going to move me on

Well they can move me where they will

Coz if that girl don't and break my heart

I know that nothing will
