[Verse 1]
Tiny village by the tide
Rust on the gate
Clock on the chapel
Running late, running late
Hands in the soil
Boots by the door
Same old raincoat
Since ’94
[Chorus]
Living in the country, out on Anglesey
Wind in the hedgerows, boys running free
Met a Scouse girl, she laughed and that was me done
Working day and night, but somehow we won
Living in the country
Knowing she’s the one
[Verse 2]
She came over on a Friday
City in her voice
Said this place is quiet
But I like your choice
Two boys in the back field
Mud to their knees
Shouting for their mam
Carving names in trees
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Long weeks, short pay
Dark comes early most days
But her tea’s on the table
Her hand’s on my arm
Two small beds
Dreaming safe in the barn
And I think
This is all I’ll ever need
[Chorus]
