Oxford Street Lyrics & Tabs by Leo
Oxford Street
guitar chords lyrics
When I was ten I thought my brother was God
he'd lie in bed and turn out the
light with a fishing rod.
I learned the names of all his football team, aid I
still remembered them when I was nineteen.
Strange the things deal that I remember still – shouts from the playground when
I was home and ill.
My sister taught me all that she learned there; when we
grow up, we said, we'd share a flat somewhere.
When I was seventeen, London meant Oxford Street.
Where I grow up there were no factories.
there was a school and shops and some
fields and trees, and rows of houses one by one appeared. I was born in one and
lived there for eighteen years.
Then when I was nineteen. I thought the Humber would be the gateway from my
fields and trees, and rows of houses one by one appeared. I was born in one and
lived there for eighteen years.
Then when I was nineteen. I thought the Humber would be the gateway from my
little world into the real world.
But there is no real world – we live side by
side, and sometimes collide. .
When I was seventeen, London meant Oxford Street. It was a little world; I grew
up in a little world.
