First kiss was under the train track
Our teeth collided, I cried
I wasn't meant to do that
And it was always slim pickings
I said I wanted to leave
He didn't think I meant that
(1, 2, 3, jump!)
I'll miss you Southern Youth
But only when I'm grown up
Oh Harewood Avenue
I wish I knew my own luck
I'll miss you Southern Youth
Sea salt and sandy school shoes
I'll never tell the truth
We never know our own luck
Band hoodies under our blazers
The walks home through the park
And the text you laters
And we vowed that we'd never stay settled
We'd be city girls
Hometown heroes gone away
I'll miss you Southern Youth
But only when I'm grown up
Oh Harewood Avenue
I wish I knew my own luck
I'll miss you Southern Youth
Sea salt and sandy school shoes
I'll never tell the truth
We never know our own luck
My lips are stained with wine
I miss the cherry cola
I'll just pretend I'm fine
Don't wanna scare my mother
I'm glad I moved away
But maybe I went too far
Haven't been home since May
Don't say we're drifting apart
I feel like a tourist now
I'll paddle in the winter
Just to remember how
We felt before September
(Don't sink, swim)
(Don't sink, swim)
(Don't sink, swim)
(Don't sink, jump!)
I'll miss you Southern Youth
But only when I'm grown up
Oh Harewood Avenue
I wish I knew my own luck
I'll miss you Southern Youth
Sea salt and sandy school shoes
I'll never tell the truth
Oh we never know our own luck
(Don't sink, swim)
(Don't sink, swim)
Oh no
(Don't sink, swim)
(Don't sink, swim)
Oh we never know
(Don't sink, jump!)
(Don't sink, jump!)
(Don't sink, jump!)
