YOU’RE KEEPING IN TIME WITH MY IDEAS


LYRICS

WHEN IT HAPPENED YOU FEEL LIKE AN ISLANDER,
YOU SEE SHIPS AND THEY’LL BE REMINDERS,
THAT YOU’RE ON AN ISLAND,
AND I’M ON AN ISLAND


THE CHANCES ARE
THERE’S A REASON WE’VE BEEN LEFT HERE
BUT I’M NOT DISAPPOINTED
THE CHANCES ARE
THERE’S A REASON WE’VE BEEN LEFT HERE
THE CHANCES ARE..THE CHANCES ARE….


YOU CAN’T CONTACT, YOU CAN’T CONTACT,
YOU CAN’T COPE WITHOUT THE CONTACT
YOU CAN’T CONTACT, YOU CAN’T CONTACT ,
YOU CAN’T COPE WITHOUT THE CONTACT


AS IT HAPPENS,
THERE’S A CITY IN SIGHT,
YOU’RE GETTING CONFUSED
BY LOCAL LAMPLIGHT, BY LOCAL LAMPLIGHT
DON’T BUY LOCAL LAMPLIGHT


THE CHANCES ARE
THERE’S A REASON WE’VE BEEN LEFT HERE
BUT I’M NOT DISAPPOINTED
THE CHANCES ARE
THERE’S A REASON WE’VE BEEN LEFT HERE
THE CHANCES ARE…THE CHANCES ARE….


YOU CAN’T CONTACT, YOU CAN’T CONTACT,
YOU CAN’T COPE WITHOUT THE CONTACT
YOU CAN’T CONTACT, YOU CAN’T CONTACT,
YOU CAN’T COPE WITHOUT THE CONTACT


BUT WHAT A SITUATION TO BE IN,
YOU’RE KEEPING IN TIME WITH MY IDEAS
YOU’RE KEEPING IN TIME WITH MY IDEAS,
YOU CAN’T STOP KEEPING IN TIME


YOU CAN’T CONTACT, YOU CAN’T CONTACT,
YOU CAN’T COPE WITHOUT THE CONTACT
YOU CAN’T CONTACT, YOU CAN’T CONTACT,
YOU CAN’T COPE WITHOUT THE CONTACT

Roddy is literally on an island: made up of England, Scotland and Wales. The fact that he lives in Scotland: in a sense, this makes his milieu more "insular" than that of the majority (the English) on this island. Probably I'm taking it too literally. I seem to recall having read that Roddy has friends in the Hebrides, which are about as remote as you can get while still being in the UK. What he means by "when it happens", or "the reason we've been left here"--I can't guess. You'd probably have to ask him. 1
