[Verse 1]
September falls, autumn's in the air
A hand-me-down blazer, a plait in my hair
Never on time, that's the way it goes
When I'm dragging my heels down Atlantic Road
[Pre-Hook 1]
Rich in poor girl's clothes
They kept me safe when the world was cold
It didn't matter they were worn out before
Well I never wanted for anything more
[Hook 1]
When we were nothing, we had it all
Your arms of loving kept me warm
And all I wanted
Cause you gave me everything that you never had
I think of something that I wanna be
Your arms of love wrapped around me
And I'm coming home
Cause you gave me everything that you never had
[Verse 2]
You take my hand when I cut my knee
You kiss it better, you heal me
And even now when it gets too much
You're by my side
[Pre-Hook 2]
And I'm rich in second-hand clothes
They keep me safe when the world is cold
It doesn't matter they were worn out before
And I don't want for anything more
[Hook 1]
When we were nothing, we had it all
Your arms of loving kept me warm
And all I wanted
Cause you gave me everything that you never had
I think of something that I wanna be
Your arms of love wrapped around me
And I'm coming home
Cause you gave me everything that you never had
[Bridge]
We laugh, we cry, we get by
And we gotta be strong
Always gotta stay strong
We struggle, we fight when we rise
And we gotta be strong
Always gotta stay strong
Cause you gave me everything that you never had
[Hook 2]
When we were nothing, we had it all
Your arms of loving kept me warm
And all I wanted
Cause you gave me everything that you never had
I think of something that I wanna be
Your arms of love wrapped around me
And I'm coming home
Cause you gave me everything that you never had
[Outro]
You gave me everything that you never had
You gave me everything that you never had
All I can do is try and give you something back

On the Bandcamp page for the EP, Andreya breaks down what she said about the song:
This song is the story of me and my mum, she had me at 18 and raised me as a single parent for a long time. For many years we lived in damp council houses while she struggled to make ends meet but when I look back on...
