  • I've been away, I've been working
    But now I'm back I need to know if you're still there
    And I need to know if you still care
    Of course you do, of course you do
    You were made for me, and I was made for you

    Some things change, but the majority stands still
    And I need to know if you want to
    And I need to know if you will
    Of course you do, of course you do
    But I was made for this place, and I was made for you

    I don't know if you would welcome me back with
    open arms through the door
    I don't expect anything but please know that I love you for sure.
    Please be sure

    I miss your eyelashes and the streets where I grew tall
    I miss getting piss wet through
    Getting to yours and getting warm
    I miss stopping over and borrowing someone else's clothes
    It's so nice to be home, you'd never have known that
    I'd even been away

    I miss the city I love but I've been having an affair
    With L.A and New York, Dundee
    And Doncaster if I may dare
    Of course I do, of course I do
    But I was meant for this place, and I was meant for you

    I miss the city I love but I've been having an affair
    With L.A and New York, Dundee and Doncaster if you
    should care. Of course you do, of course you do

    But I was made for this place and I was made for you
    My heart is here, here to stay Writer/s: LIAM JAMES FRAY
