September falls
Autumn in the air
A hand me down blazer a plait in my hair
I'm never on time
Thats the way it goes
Dragging my heels down atlantic
Felt rich in poor girls clothes
They kept me safe when the world was cold
Didn't matter they were worn out before
Never wanted for anything more
When we were nothing we had it all
Arms of love kept me warm
All i wanted, all i wanted
You gave me everything that you never had
I think your something i want to be
With arms of love wrapped around
I'm coming home, coming home
Coz you gave me everything that you never had
All i can do is try and give you something back
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 you pick me up
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
Arms of love kept me warm
All i wanted, all i wanted
You gave me everything that you never had
I think your something i want to be
With arms of love wrapped around
I'm coming home, coming home
Coz you gave me everything that you never had
All i can do is try and give you something back
Gave me everything that you never had
We laugh
We cry
We get by and we've got to be strong
We've always got to be strong
We struggle
We fight
And we rise and we've got to be strong
We've always got to be strong
When we were nothing we had it all
Arms of love kept me warm
All i wanted, all i wanted
You gave me everything that you never had
I think your something i want to be
With arms of love wrapped around
I'm coming home, coming home
Coz you gave me everything that you never had
All i can do is try and give you something back
Gave me everything that you never had
