Billy Bragg You Woke Up My Neighbourhood
As I wait for sleep to drag me under In the evening gloom I sit and wonder The words I should have said to you The things I always meant to do The bad dreams that all came true CHORUS: You woke up my neighbourhood Night after night we would row You woke up my neighbourhood Things and pretty quiet round here now When I think of how we were together I know we couldn't be like that forever Beneath the Seven Sister stars The night we let it go too far I slept out in the car CHORUS I remember skipping on the porch till it grew cold I remember feeling like I was eight years old Somersaults across the lawn Singing dancing up till dawn Every now and then we'd have a row You woke up my neighbourhood Things and pretty quiet round here now CHORUS (repeat)
