lyrics

Never struggled in the early days
Cause there was warmth in every word you’d say
Even when the pennies started to fade
It didn’t matter
Cause we had everything we’d need and more
And yeah you always had an open door
I knew if I’d ever badly fall
I could come running

I was raised by the best
Only love running through their bones
There was light in the air
There was light in every corner of home
And everybody has a past
And a path to follow
It can change at lightning speed
But I owe it all to my roots
And everything you gave to me
Yeah I owe it all to my roots
And everything you gave to me
Oh I owe it all to my roots
And everything you gave to me

Watching old videos
Well it’s funny where the time just goes
But the four of us were always close
None of those teenage hiding in the bedroom years
I’d rather sit and talk to you
And sing along to our favourite tune
None of my dreams would have ever come true
Without you
Without you

I was raised by the best
Only love running through their bones
There was light in the air
There was light in every corner of home
And everybody has a past
And a path to follow
It can change at lightning speed
But I owe it all to my roots
And everything you gave to me
Yeah I owe it all to my roots
And everything you gave to me
I owe it all to my roots
And everything you gave to me
I owe it all


All to my roots, all to my roots
And everything you gave to me
I owe it all to my roots, all to my roots
And everything you gave to me

I was raised by the best
Only love running through their bones
There was light in the air
There was light in every corner of home
And everybody has a past
And a path to follow
It can change at lightning speed
But I owe it all to my roots
And everything you gave to me
Yeah I owe it all to my roots
And everything you gave to me
