Hackney Wick - Strings Version

Lyrics of Hackney Wick - Strings Version by Rose Gray, LUXE

Intro

I kinda wanna wait ′til it drops

Verse

You know those nights aren't planned

Like you rush home from work, shower, eat, make up

Jam to your tunes, have a drink

Get a little waved, I′m running late, but I still have time

Take some pictures, walk fast, music's blasting

Bump into an old school friend

Tap my card, elevator, train

Four stops to Hackney Wick

Verse

We meet outside, colors

We have a drink on the canal

The sun's just set, it′s 10 p.m.

Pink′s turned to dark blue, and gray and glow

The moon is reflecting all pretty on the water

Verse

We're looking so fit

We call it dressing down

This is wearing as little clothes as possible

I wrap my coat round your shoulders

This is mad energy in East tonight

Verse

Why does the city get me so well?

So we head to the warehouse

I hear the bass, the music and I succumb

We drink, and we dance, and then we just have like fucking good time

Verse

And then this is off a party, back to her friends just down the canal

She lives off my old street in Bow, three minutes from Vicki Park

We made break into the park and we just run

And I′m laughing so hard that I fall to the floor

Verse

You lay next to me and I start to trip

The stars, they're molding into spaceships

Like aliens snogging in the clouds

It′s sexy

You're so hot, we start to kiss

Your lips feel so good

And I remember there′s another party

Baby's DJing, I'm back

Bridge

And the room pulses

All of the way pulses

They pulses

Pulses so fucking hard

Chorus

Take me right back to Hackney Wick

Take my heart to my youth right here

Take me right back to Hackney Wick

All the love, all the energy...

Chorus

Take me right back to Hackney Wick

Take my heart to my youth right here

Take me right back to Hackney Wick

All the love, all the energy...

Outro

Take me right back to Hackney Wick

See me in the city

Just feel like it was yesterday

Take me right back to Hackney Wick

Hackney Wick, Hackney Wick, Hackney Wick, Hackney Wick

Hackney Wick, Hackney Wick, Hackney Wick, Hackney Wick

Still feels like yesterday

Still feels-
