Nothing’s Ever Open in Dunoon

Yo, Dunoon, listen up, let me tell you a tale
'Bout a place where everything seems to fail
Valentine's Day, love's in the air
But all the shops and cafes, they just don't care
No flowers, no chocolates, no romantic scenes
Just empty streets, no lights or gleams
We walk alone, no place to go
In this town where nothing seems to flow

Nothings ever open in Dunoon!
Valentine's Day, we're feeling so blue
We'll have to just walk the empty streets alone
There's nowhere to go and nothing to do
Because nothing's ever open in Dunoon

Wish we could ride the ferry, escape this place
But it's just a dream, we can't embrace
And when spring comes, there will be a change
But the doors are now shut, it feels so strange
Castle House Museum, Dunoon Castle Ruins
Benmore Botanic Garden, all of 'em snoozin'
Hafton Castle, Argyll Forest Park
The Bishop's Glen, they're all in the dark

Nothings ever open in Dunoon!
Valentine's Day, we're feeling so blue
We'll have to just walk the empty streets alone
There's nowhere to go and nothing to do
Because nothing's ever open in Dunoon

Dunoon Burgh Hall, Glenfinart Walled Garden
Puck's Glen, they're all shut, no pardon
Cowal Golf Club, Cowal Highland Gathering
Dunoon Film Festival, no films are screening
Beaches and Coastal Walks, we can't explore
Holy Loch Marina, closed door after door
Morag's Fairy Glen, Dunoon Pier
Loch Eck, Kilmun Arboretum, all we hear is fear

Nothings ever open in Dunoon!
Valentine's Day, we're feeling so blue
We'll have to just walk the empty streets alone
There's nowhere to go and nothing to do
Because nothing's ever open in Dunoon

I'm sorry, my friend, I've lost all hope
Dunoon's still trapped, like a prisoner in ropes
Inveraray Jail, a reminder of our plight
Closed and abandoned, in the cold winter night
Strone Point, it stands tall, yet remains unseen
No open doors, just a deserted scene
We long for change, for a chance to explore
But in this town, everything's closed, nothing more

Nothings ever open in Dunoon!
Valentine's Day, we're feeling so blue
We'll have to just walk the empty streets alone
There's nowhere to go and nothing to do
Because nothing's ever open in Dunoon

In our hearts, we carry the weight
Of a town where closure has sealed its fate
But Dunoon, we'll stay strong, keep our pride
In times of stillness, we'll walk side by side
Though nothing's open, we'll find our own way
To light up the darkness, to brighten our day
Nothings ever open in Dunoon, it's true
But together, we'll always make it through
