[Chorus]
Lonsdale Avenue, I'm coming back home
I've been walking, I've been walking many a mile alone
Long, long avenue, I'm one of your own
I've been working, I've been working my fingers to the bone

[Verse 1]
I don't have enemies, no enemies in mind
But I've got friends and I have seen them all pass by
I had a job, in fact I worked it all the time
It hurts to find I never put enough aside

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Pierced with every pixel
Shame, but that's the game
Left over and out here
I'm not asleep again

[Chorus]
Lonsdale Avenue, I'm coming back home
I've been walking, I've been walking many a mile alone
Long long avenue, I'm one of your own
I've been working, I've been working my fingers to the bone

[Verse 2]
I had a selkie child, in troubled times she came
I couldn't protect her from this life and all its pain
We called her many things and those things she'll remain
But she taught me better love that I might love again
[Pre-Chorus 2]
To slip into the slipstream
Follow her and go
But this man who'd gladly move a million mountains
Must get outside and shovel snow

[Chorus]
Lonsdale Avenue, I'm coming back home
I've been walking, I've been walking many a mile alone
Long long avenue, I'm one of your own
I've been working, I've been working my fingers to the bone

[Outro]
Lonsdale avenue, I'm coming back home
I've been working, I've been working my fingers to the bone
