Stars With The Jam

You and me in Bay 17 eh

Wide awake in a stadium of dreams eh

I'm wearing this bracelet you made me red and white beads yeh

You're telling me like it's our secret the colours of our team yeh

And I've been caught up

Head down in the biz

Up for the songs we sing, open up my arms

When you come apart, when you um and ah

none of any of it ever sum it up

Do I listen to your mum enough?

Kid, your mum is fucking wondrous

Yeh I meant to cuss

I think it's ok for something so ridiculous

Message is mixed, that's what it is

And it's your luck to get stuck with her

I feel the same in the way I ended up with her

I don't know much, but of what I promised

You're my better days

I owe you my galaxy

Hope it's not too late

I hope I find the words to say

I fall over when my priorities change

Cos you are, you are, my everything

Learn to swim, I learn to braid

Making notes of things you say

Post em with emoji faces

In amidst the disarray

Paint it green bottom part of the page

Colour in the blue sky with yellow sun rays

I've got a gig and gotta get on a plane

Not before I suspend my age

When you grow up people ask where you come from

No matter where you leave your mark

You laugh and you sing and you cry

You love and you learn and you share your spark

And it all comes back to your mama

Your softness, your armour

And don't forget now, of what I promised

You're my better days

I owe you my galaxy

Hope it's not too late

I hope I find the words to say

I fall over when my priorities change

Cos you are, you are, my everything
