Lyrics

Eighteen

This city depresses me But you try to be everything I need We sat on the corner kissing each other Felt like I could finally see in colour I was 18 when I met you Poured my heart out, spilt all my truth I finally felt like I could feel for the first time When I met you Everybody passed us by With the same conversation time after time I could stay by your side all night Baby, it's just you and me and that's fine I was 18 when I met you Poured my heart out, spilt all my truth I finally felt like I could feel for the first time When I met you I was 18 when I met you Poured my heart out, spilt all my truth I finally felt like I could feel for the first time I was 18 when I met you Poured my heart out, spilt all my truth I finally felt like I could feel for the first time When I met you

Pale Waves have confirmed a UK and Ireland tour of often overlooked cities

Manchester alt-pop band Pale Waves announces October tour dates across UK and Ireland, focusing on often-overlooked cities and venues.

Pale Waves: "It felt important to express the joy of queer love, because queer love is amazing"

Embracing romance and letting go of the past, Pale Waves return with their most liberating album yet.

Pale Waves are teasing 'Smitten' with their scenic new video for 'Thinking About You'

The band's new album is out later this month.

Pale Waves are the special guests on the latest edition of Down With Boring

We're back with the three-and-a-half times Dork cover stars.
