Sixteen
Paint the scene
For you and me & him and her
You don't even have to think
Cobblestone and lively streets
Busy pubs & open seats
I had landed on my feet
7 miles from Salford town
I got a job and settled down
And you across the sea
How I hoped you wait for me
Found a place to make a home
No longer on my own
But never more alone
Do you still love me Amelia
Like you used to do
Will you still hold me Amelia
Like I'm used to
The summer is coming
And I have to go
Leave you to face this all on your own
Do you still love me Amelia
Like you used to do
Like you used to do
7 months of newfound fears
Sunday letters of homebound tears
I had finally found my feet
9 years had come and gone
With you in mind all along
And we finally were set to meet
I was free from Salford town
I left my job to settle down
And you across the sea
How I hoped you wait for me
In a boat bound for west
And with the change a wedding dress
I bought for you and me
Do you still love me Amelia
Like you used to do
Will you still hold me Amelia
Like I'm used to
The summer is coming
And I have to go
Leave you to face this all on your own
Do you still love me Amelia
Like you used to do
Like you used to do
And as your breath coalesces on the bottom of my collar
I don't want to change my mind, I don't want to be a bother
But I still gotta ask you one last time
Do you still love me Amelia
Like you used to do
Will you still hold me Amelia
Like I'm used to
The summer is coming
And I have to go
Leave you to face this all on your own
Do you still love me Amelia
Like you used to do
Like you used to do
