Everything But The Girl - Hatfield 1980 lyrics

rate me

Suburbia, 1 am

You're walking home again

Shopping bags and broken glass

I hate going through the underpass

I wish there was some other way around

But you got beaten up by the playground

And it's no use

You'll have to go through

Suburban shopping centre

Pedestrian walkways

I think they were meant to make things better

It's just emptier

The scary nighttime

Hatfield, at that time

This is the place I live

Where is everyone?

Are we the only ones?

This is the place I live

And so does everyone

And so does everyone

Hatfield 1980

I'm seeing my first knife

My first ambulance ride

I hold your hand the whole way crying

Get home the next day

Police have already been

Well, you can imagine the scene

And if I'm going home

I better change my clothes

I better change my clothes

This is the place I live

Where is everyone?

Are we the only ones?

This is the place I live

And so does everyone

And so does everyone

When I'm looking back

I look for everyone

And when I fall down

I fall for everyone
