Del Amitri

Del Amitri were a Scottish alternative rock band, formed in Glasgow, Scotland in 1983. The band grew out of Justin Currie's Jordanhill College School band and came together after teenager Currie placed an advertisement in the window of a music store asking for people who could play to contact him. The band was formed with the original line-up of Currie (bass and vocals), Iain Harvie (lead guitar), Bryan Tolland (guitar) and Paul Tyagi (drums). Currie and Harvie are the only members of the band to remain present throughout its history. They are also the main songwriters of the group. more »

The western approaches go by in a flash
And the joke I call home is just a party I crash
So I lie on the pillow so desperate to go
Back to the playground of the show

I look from the window watch the world standing still
Feel the floorboards sliding with just the force of will
I taste the dirt of the cities that I thundered through
See the battalions of taxis that I fell into

At the end of the lightning is the life that I know
I hit the ground like a hailstone and melt into the flow

As you lay dying
I was coasting on a shaky stage
Living large at the end of the lightning
Tearing out another page

My five o'clock shadow has turned to midnight snow
I share laughs with your widow
But the punchline I don't wanna know
I pine for the motion and long for the van to go
Be at the other end of the lightning
With the ground so far below
