You Woke Up My Neighbourhood Lyrics by Billy Bragg

You Woke Up My Neighbourhood Lyrics

    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 are pretty quiet round here now

    When i think of how we were together
    I know we couldn't be like that for ever
    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 tilll 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 are pretty quiet round here now

    Chorus (repeat)
