To my beautiful Granny Eileen. We made this for you for your 80th birthday, and I know you'll love that more people will get to hear our story and enjoy this song. All proceeds will be donated to charities and organisations supporting people of Ukraine. This may evolve over time, so haven't selected one in particular yet but when I have I will update everyone who has purchased.
lyrics
Verse One:
Days there feel endless
We can’t wait to see you
It’s like going home
after a long long time away
Vearse Two:
This drive feels endless
We brought all our things just in case
Just, count down the landmarks,
Gingerbread, hump back, dragon, and a tunnel
Just hold on, it’s one more long road - do do do do do do do
Chorus.
And we’ve arrived,
Car door slams, screen slides
Furtive knock, you feign surprise
Somethings cooking in the kitchen
Steal a biscuit from the biscuit tin
And then we’ll all sit round your chair
And listen in
Verse Three
Days here feel endless
We can’t wait to wave the others off
It’s just us now
We can’t wait to see what fun we’ll have
Monday playing games,
Tuesday - doing chores
Wednesday - playin cards, beat your neighbours out of doors
We’ll put Curlers in your hair, have Cake at WI, we’ll walk down to the shop and all the parks that we can find,
Sunday go to church,
Then mum and dad will pick us up
And count down
Bridge:
Hempton
deddington
Clifton
Anyho
Do do do dooo
Chorus.
And we’ve arrived,
Apron on, arms wide
Somethings cooking in the kitchen
Steal a biscuit, and we steal a grin
And then we’ll all sit round your chair
And listen in
Oh to be together here again, is everything
Middle 8:
You are our oldest friend,
Not just to us but to so many
so many endless days
Singing songs, and telling stories
When there’s a storm outside
You’re there ready with a warm bath and a towel
Sausage and beans for tea, such a special memory
And still i can’t wait til we
mmm
Bridge:
Do do do do dodo Just hold on, it’s one more long road - do do do do do do do
Chorus.
Til we arrive,
On Boxing day, trees white
Or Festivals, star gaze at midnight
Making rainbows with the hosepipe, water the garden in the evening light
And then we’ll all come in again to say goodnight
Oh, we’ll be together here, again,
And we’ll all sit round your chair
Oh to be together here again, is everything
