September falls Autumn's in the air A hand me down blazer And plait my hair Never on time Thats the way it goes When I'm dragging my heels down Atlantic Road Rich in poor girls clothes They kept me safe when the world was cold Didn't matter they were worn out before Well I never wanted for anything more When we were nothing We had it all Your arms of love Kept me warm And All I wanted Cos you gave me everything that you never had I think your something I wanna be Your arms of love Wrapped around me And I'm coming home Cos you gave me everything that you never had You take my hand When I cut my knee You kiss it better You heal me Gave me Everything that you never had You'd take my hand when I cut my knee You kiss it better You healed me And even now When it gets too much You're by my side And I'm rich in secondhand clothes They keep me safe when the world is cold It don't matter they were worn out before And I don't want for anything more
When we were nothing We had it all Your arms of love Kept me warm And all I wanted Because you gave me everything that you never had I think your something I wanna be With arms of love wrapped around me And I'm coming home Cos you gave me everything that you never had We laugh We cry We get by And we got to be strong Always got to stay strong We struggle We fight And We rise And We've got to be strong Always got to stay strong Cos you gave me everything that we never had When we were nothing We had it all Your arms of love And Kept me warm And all I wanted Because you gave me everything that you never had I think your something I wanna be Your arms of love wrapped around me And I'm coming home Because you gave me everything that you never had Gave me everything that you never had You gave me everything that you never had All I can do is try and give you something back
