Village - Paul Weller

Here I am, ten stories high

Not a single cloud in my eye

Not a thing I’d change if I could

I’m happy here in my neighborhood

And all the things I’ve never been, I’ve

Never seen, I don’t care much

And all the things I’ve never done, I’ve

Never won, I don’t care much

I never knew what a world this was

'Til I looked in my heart

And saw myself for what I am

Found a whole world in my hands

And all the things I’m supposed to be

And all the things that you want from me

I don’t know why, I don’t know why

I don’t know why, I don’t know why

I don’t need all the things you got

I just wanna be who I want

I don’t need all the things you hold

In high regard, they mean nothing at all

And all the things I’ve never been, I’ve

Never seen, I don’t care much

And all the things I’ve never done, I’ve

Never won, I don’t care much

This village is where I’m from

It’s one place that I call home

You wanna show me another side

But I’ve got heaven in my sights

I never knew what a world this was

'Til I looked in my heart

And saw myself for what I am

Found a whole world in my hands

And all the things I’ve never been, I’ve

Never seen, I don’t care much

And all the things I’ve never done, I’ve

Never won, I don’t
