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
