Hair Too Long
The Vamps Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm just sick of staying up losing sleep, who gives a
Don't you? Don't you?
Lie in bed sometimes at night, miss looking into my eyes
Don't you? 'Cause I do

I don't wanna be this cold
Shivering to my bones
Someone reset my soul, oh, oh
And I don't wanna be locked out
I don't wanna feel this doubt
I just wanna scream and shout

I'll go out, grow my hair too long
Sing your least favorurite song
At the top of my lungs (oh, oh, oh)
I'll go out, kiss all of your friends
Make a story and pretend
It was me who made this end (oh, oh, oh)

Let me take a second to sympathise 'cause you're right
I'm away too much, I think too much, I drink too much
But it's only a matter of time before we catch up
And I get to say
I wouldn't have it any other way
'Cause it's made me think and drink my way
Back to mistakes I never should have made
Once more chance and I'll right the wrongs from yesterday

And I don't wanna be locked out
I don't wanna feel this doubt
I just wanna scream and shout

I'll go out, grow my hair too long
Sing your least favorurite song
At the top of my lungs (oh, oh, oh)
I'll go out, kiss all of your friends
Make a story and pretend
It was me who made this end (oh, oh, oh)

It might seem cruel
You know that the love still hurts
All I do, never, ever seems to work
I'll go and grow my hair too long
Sing your least favorurite song
At the top of my lungs (oh, oh, oh)

I been stumbling 'round
Asking if you're in town
I been drinking too much
I don't give a

I'll go out, grow my hair too long
Sing your least favorurite song
At the top of my lungs (oh, oh, oh)
I'll go out, kiss all of your friends
Make a story and pretend
It was me who made this end (oh, oh, oh)

It might seem cruel
You know that the love still hurts
All I do, never, ever seems to work
I'll go and grow my hair too long
Sing your least favorurite song
At the top of my lungs (oh, oh, oh)

I been stumbling 'round ('round, 'round)
Asking if you're in town (town, town)
I been drinking too much (oh, I know I am)
I don't give a fuck
I been stumbling 'round ('round, 'round)
Asking if you're in town (town, town)




I been drinking too much
I don't give a
