about
The much anticipated first ever release by Kitty Liv enthrals you into a bass grooving, head-bopping, guitar strumming love letter to London in the summertime. Using all her lyrical and multi-instrumental virtuosity, she sings of her love for Kentish Town where she was born and bred, enticing you through a soulful journey from the cold and dreary typical English weather into the bustling technicolour city that is London in the Summer Time. Be prepared to smile.
lyrics
LYRICS:
It’s been too cold to go outside,
Just had to wrap up warm and hide,
Dreaming of a warmer time.
See all the blossom on the trees,
Feel the sunshine on my knees,
Kentish Town is the place of my dreams.
As the days are getting longer, my anxiety’s getting stronger.
Ooh Ooh!
The cold weather makes my skin go dry,
I can’t wait til the summer time,
This Lovely London Summer Time x3
Remember the old days at Hampstead Heath,
Crackin’ a beer open with my teeth,
99p for a Mr Whippy.
I take a dip in the women’s pond,
Escape from the city of which I’m so fond,
And I’m hesitant to move along.
And it’s not all that bad in the wintertime,
I like cuddles by the fireside.
It’s just something that happens to London Town,
When the sun comes out, everyone comes out.
And the days are getting longer, my anxiety is no longer.
Ooh Ooh!
The cold weather makes my skin go dry,
I can’t wait til the summer time,
This Lovely London Summer Time x3
My mate’s down the pub I’ll be there in a flash,
Tapping The Admiral to spend my cash,
After a Mario’s Bangers & Mash.
I fancy a G&T on ice,
I keep spending most my life going into Drinker’s Paradise.
But the days are getting longer, my anxiety is no longer.
Ooh Ooh!
The cold weather makes my skin go dry,
I can’t wait til the summer time,
This Lovely London Summer Time
