Jamie Lily

Intro: Verse Well Jamie gets home from work Puts a record on Fixes up the dinner, waits for Lily to come She's been teaching all day She's got papers to mark She agrees with the kids when it comes to homework But there's a veggie lasagna Left from last night She could warm it up, do a little salad on the side She lays the table Pours two glasses of juice She hears her coming up the stairs, her key goes in the lock Then Lily gets home from work Kicks off her shoes She smiles at Jamie and it lights up the room She's just back from the hospital Another double shift She knew that nursing wasn't gonna be easy, but she wasn't expecting this In fact the only thing That got her through today Was knowing she'd be coming home to Jamie, gay Instrumental: Dancing round the kitchen Time is standing still And for a moment we forget about the worries of the world Teaching and nursing It's been a really long day But Jamie and Lily count their blessings all the same Verse The rent in Brighton Isn't cheap Which is annoying, because that's where they live And that's all Jamie wanted When she was growing up To move to Brighton, find a girl and fall in love That's exactly how it happened When she met Lily Love at first sight and the rest is history Jamie went to work To help pay for Lily's training But they toughed it out together, both scrimping and saving Until that final day They both fully qualified Now just like Jamie, she's working all the time Dancing round the kitchen Time is standing still And for a moment we forget about the worries of the world Teaching and nursing It's been a really long day But Jamie and Lily count their blessings all the same Outro Well, teachers and nurses Are the fabric of society And they deserve to be treated like royalty So that's how they treat each other Jamie and Lily Because love stays true while the world goes crazy Oh, love stays true while the world goes crazy
