You Woke Up My Neighbourhood — Bragg Billy

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
