Black Cherry

Lately when I sleep, memories play on repeat
Do you remember?
Us sat is grey school skirts, kinky hair and ink stained white shirts.
Late September
My dad was type who likes beer and picking fights
No one was ever home, we'd eat beans on toast alone.
Do you remember?

Black cherry
Love is a verb
Get what you give
You learn and you live.
Yeah

A pretty lie is better than the ugly truth,
We saw things crystal with wide eyed youth
Nothing beats as loud as teenaged hearts
Ooh la la ooh la la
Press rewind and love like you never had a broken heart

Black cherry
Love is a verb
Get what you give
You learn and you live.
Yeah

And here is a thought,
Good kids are bad kids that haven't been caught
And other thing, hard as you try you can't always win
Angel wings got cut from our backs
Do you blame gravity for keeping you chained
Like I blame history cos my roots where maimed
I keep smiling even though I'm ashamed.
Hold out for sunshine it won't always rain.

Black cherry
Love is a verb
Get what you give
You learn and you live.
Yeah
