"Wootton Bridge" lyrics
House on the island
Down by Wootten Bridge
Was it five or was it six
Barely a child
Down by that little creek
Clay and stones, the smell of shit
Is that all I remember of that little life of mine
The teary eyes and split lips
Chest to the carpet
Collecting LEGO bricks
While you fetch another drink
The colour of the counters
Barely reach the sink
I remember how it feels
But I don't remember ever feeling that alone
Cos I was happy
Yeah I was happy I think
Down by the water
Skipping stones across the bay
Is there a man behind the name
What becomes of me
I'm scared of what my child sees
Will you help me light the way
Down by Wootten Bridge
Was it five or was it six
Barely a child
Down by that little creek
Clay and stones, the smell of shit
Is that all I remember of that little life of mine
The teary eyes and split lips
Chest to the carpet
Collecting LEGO bricks
While you fetch another drink
The colour of the counters
Barely reach the sink
I remember how it feels
But I don't remember ever feeling that alone
Cos I was happy
Yeah I was happy I think
Down by the water
Skipping stones across the bay
Is there a man behind the name
What becomes of me
I'm scared of what my child sees
Will you help me light the way
