Never tell us what to do

We met in art at our old high school,
I made you laugh
you said I was a fool.
I walked you home and held on to your hand,
I flew so high I new I could not land.

No one told us what we should do,
we took our time just me and you.
Standing tall and standing together
we face it all with a cry of never.

We got a flat and I bought a cheap ring,
I had no money
wouldn’t change a single thing.
We lived in bed with tea and takeaways,
I worked all night and dreamed on through the days.

No one told us what we should do,
we took our time just me and you.
Standing tall and standing together
we face it all with a cry of never.

You got a job teaching kids in school ,
we bought a car
and I broke some stupid rules.
You dressed in white with me in blue,
I took your hand and I said I really do.

(Bridge)
Your belly swelled with the first of two,
filmed the births they looks like you
I fed them smiles and made them laugh,
no we never needed any cash,
always grins in our photographs,
time goes by when your not looking back

Now there grown but wont stay away,
got some time
and still plenty left to say.
We go for walks and I hold on to your hand,
I fly so high I know I cannot land.

No one told us what we should do,
we took our time just me and you.
Standing tall and standing together
we face it all with a cry of never.

We’ve still got time and I’ve still got you.
had some fun with the best to come,
never tell us when to run,
never ask us for a clue,
never tell us what to do.

No one told us what we should do,
we took our time just me and you.
Standing tall and standing together
we face it all with a cry of never.
