Highlandtown (Tami's Song) Lyrics

I'm five-years-old in Highlandtown and I'm looking at the street

Wondering where these deep blue eyes are gonna go

Fringe of bangs framed my face, had a tender heart with an empty space

Looking back I wish I would have known

When life's tough, just give love

And when you give love, it all comes to you

Makes your heart buzz - just live love

And when you live love, love gets you through

Thirty years since Highlandtown and I'm walking down the beach

Wondering where that blue eyed girl has gone

Castles crashing around me, surprising tide the sweetest thief

Looking back I wish I would have known

When life's tough, just give love

And when you give love, it all comes to you

Makes your heart buzz - just live love

And when you live love, love gets you through

I'm still that girl from Highlandtown and it's coming back to me

All the wonder that my heart can hold

You know this life's incredible and the thing that makes it full

Somehow I've always known

When life's tough, just give love

And when you give love, it all comes to you

Makes your heart buzz - just live love

And when you live love, love gets you through

When life's tough - don't worry, little girl

Because you give love - ever more and more

And when you give love, it all comes to you

Makes your heart buzz - you're who you're meant to be

'Cause you live love - it's you that we all need

And when you live love, love gets you through

Live love - gonna be incredible

Live love - simply unforgettable

Live love - love gets us through
