Highlights Lyrics

You ask me why this moment feels familiar. I say we"ve been coming in for years
The walls are cracked seat may be not as sturdy. a picture frame reminds us why we"re here

So sing it leily ya leil leily ya leil, ya leily ya leil, leily ya leil
Daylight comes but nobody"s home
People pray together others smoke alone
Two young boys kick a stone to school
Shops are open no one"s curious, a donkey cart parks aside a tourist bus
Two boys join, one explains the rules

Ask you why your name cries so triumphant. said you wanted me to pass the bread
Ask you why you always dodge the question. in between chews you say it"s time for bed

Whispering leily ya leil leily ya leil, ya leily ya leil, leily ya leil
Daylight comes but nobody"s home
People pray together others smoke alone
Two young boys kick a stone to school
Shops are open no one"s curious, a donkey cart parks aside a tourist bus
Two boys join, one explains the rules

Four blue jackets mark the goal lines
Blackest tar, the greenest grass
Prize at stake the brightest gold mine
Highlights last for weeks to pass
Ask you why you always know the future. said you thought I would"ve liked to know
Pass the pipe city lights the rear view. deep inside I know it"s time to go

Your whispering ya leily ya leil leily ya leil, ya leily ya leil, leily ya leil

Daylight comes but nobody"s home
People pray together others smoke alone
Two goals down hope is swaying soon
Shops still open no one"s curious, a donkey cart parks aside a tourist bus
Two young boys kicked a stone to school

Leily ya leil leily ya leil ya leily ya leil, leily ya leil
