Highfield Songtext
I can’t believe you’re walking down here to pick me up with our friend
And I’ve only slept and showered since you walked me home again
I could spend all my time with you and you know I wouldn’t mind one bit
You want me to stay safe but I wanna forget the world for the evening
I’m gonna take self-defence so don’t worry yourself about me
I’ll only leave the house without getting changed once in a while
But therе’s nothing like a red dress on a cloudy day in thе park
Makes the birds sing a little louder makes my heart beat a little prouder
And I’ve only slept and showered since you walked me home again
I could spend all my time with you and you know I wouldn’t mind one bit
You want me to stay safe but I wanna forget the world for the evening
I’m gonna take self-defence so don’t worry yourself about me
I’ll only leave the house without getting changed once in a while
But therе’s nothing like a red dress on a cloudy day in thе park
Makes the birds sing a little louder makes my heart beat a little prouder
But each time I reach my door shaking screams from my head and rivers from my eyes
Take my makeup off for a work call and try to forget about the road outside
I wish the whole world was Highfield I wish it stretched right to my door
And over Broom Lane with its cars and its horns and its shouts and the staring
I wish the whole world was Highfield overgrowing red bricks in the sun
Along Watts Street sun against the catkins against bare branches against the high clouds
Take my makeup off for a work call and try to forget about the road outside
I wish the whole world was Highfield I wish it stretched right to my door
And over Broom Lane with its cars and its horns and its shouts and the staring
I wish the whole world was Highfield overgrowing red bricks in the sun
Along Watts Street sun against the catkins against bare branches against the high clouds
