[Intro: Joey Batey]
Awake, awake, you children bold
Take hold of all your books and fold
The corners, they warned us
A storm is coming on
What do you mean you've lost
Your scarlet welly boots, do y'know what they cost?
Wear a raincoat or it'll soak you to the bone
[Verse 1: Joey Batey]
What's it like, the children ask?
It’s just like falling snow, I am above you
And I love you, don't you know
That I'll be with you all along, as long as you are kind
To those who are not strong and cannot find their scarlet welly boots
[Chorus: Joey Batey]
'Cause when it's cold
I'll wrap my scarf around you
And when it's hard
I'll place your head into my hands
And when you scream that it's not fair
It's like I've gone off to the coast
Left you behind just standing there
Pretending not to see your ghost
If only you could hear my voice
But you are screaming far too loud to hear me swear
Just because I left doesn't mean that I'm not still there
Awake, awake, you children bold
Take hold of all your books and fold
The corners, they warned us
A storm is coming on
What do you mean you've lost
Your scarlet welly boots, do y'know what they cost?
Wear a raincoat or it'll soak you to the bone
[Verse 1: Joey Batey]
What's it like, the children ask?
It’s just like falling snow, I am above you
And I love you, don't you know
That I'll be with you all along, as long as you are kind
To those who are not strong and cannot find their scarlet welly boots
[Chorus: Joey Batey]
'Cause when it's cold
I'll wrap my scarf around you
And when it's hard
I'll place your head into my hands
And when you scream that it's not fair
It's like I've gone off to the coast
Left you behind just standing there
Pretending not to see your ghost
If only you could hear my voice
But you are screaming far too loud to hear me swear
Just because I left doesn't mean that I'm not still there
