Sports Day Smile

(album: Painwave - 2019)

I raise a glass to the boys on St Johns estate
Some in the arms of the soil and some raising kids in the arms of the state
I know that somewhere above your glass is touching mine
So full of life, so full of love with your sports day smile

With your sports day smile
With your sports day smile
With your sports day smile
With your sports day smile

I raise a glass to the English class where my head was smashed
Tore my brain apart and broke my mothers heart
Meant I couldn't drive a car whilst all my friends were going fast
I grew up playing in the park where they took away your life
I bet you rose up like an angel through the dark
Pleasing God with your...

With your sports day smile
With your sports day smile
With your sports day smile
With your sports day smile

On the field out by the school
This is how I picture you
With your sports day smile
On the field out by the school
This is how I picture you
With your sports day smile

When I see the blueness of the sky I know you're walking on sunshine
When I see the blueness of the sky I know you're walking on sunshine
When I see the blueness of the sky I know you're walking on sunshine
