about

Two different worlds? It's possible to navigate them if we know who we are and where we are going.

lyrics

Summertime seems made for love
Encouraging ideas above
The station that I have in life
Exclusion cut back with a knife

I see your smile and
Have to look back
You aren't supposed
To do it like that
The world you have
Is far from my hopes
You stand in the middle
Whilst I'm on the ropes

And yet it doesn't seem to matter
You are you and I am me
When our words are shared together
Somehow one and one make three

So we move along again
Finding more and losing them
We seek our way carefully
We can't alert the enemy

You are rich and I am not
Your Hampstead house
A wealthy spot
Where people come from many lands
Eating dinner and shaking hands

But me, I live in a council flat
With Arsenal fans I drink and chat
But together we know who we are
We treasure that so we'll go far

What can we do, no one would see
Compatible when we are free
The people who live there inside
Are not tied by petty pride

We know our love
We know that we care
We take the time to be there
We listen hard, we share the load
We work as one and take this road

There are no secrets to our passion
It passes through the barriers there
The people we are is what matters
Not the place where our parents are

So on we go, enjoy the scenes
Never think of differences
It seems we have more in common
Love each one, having fun

You are rich and I am not
Your Hampstead house
A wealthy spot
Where people come from many lands
Eating dinner and shaking hands

But me, I live in a council flat
With Arsenal fans I drink and chat
But together we know who we are
We treasure that so we'll go far

As time goes by we build a life
Things go well, we battle strife
The two sides of the lives we lead
Are reconciled, help when we need

It seems we thought
The worst of them all
But people came
When their children called
The rich and the poor
The good and the bad
It seems they're both
In your mum and dad

The enemy becomes your friend now
Hampstead, Regent's Park alike
We can walk wherever we want to
Love it seems can cross divides

Happiness is the love we share
In fact goes out everywhere
When people see how we can be
Wealth matters not, so set them free

We know our love, we know our care
We take the time to be there
We listen hard, we share the load
We work as one to take this road
