Name: David Leach - Handmade Christmas by davidleach
Duration: 2 min 13 s
Description: Handmade Christmas was written in an big old house on Baker Street in London in 2010. I was there for 2 months and did a lot of knitting and falling over on the Ice in regents Park. I got shoulder barged 3 times on Oxford Street in one day - frustrated I got my pen and ukulele out.

"Will You Always Be My Friend" is the AA-side of The Spook School's first single on Fortuna POP!

While the A-side "I'll Be Honest" is taken from their forthcoming debut album 'Dress Up', due out on Fortuna POP! in October, “Will You Always Be My Friend?” is exclusive to the single. It was written by Adam a few years before and turned out a lot better than they expected it to once they recorded it. It’s about not really knowing how romantic relationships work or even if you’d actually want to take part in one in the first place or if you did then not knowing who with. Seeing other people who seem to be able to do all that kind of stuff so easily and not really knowing how they do it.

The Spook School - Will You Always Be My Friend

From Happy Valley - Released 10/8/13

Lyrics:

There's no need to justify or categorize each others company
There's no need to justify or categorize each others company

On the Veranda 
Sitting on the handrail
Brushing up against him
Brutus on a grand scale
I know he is your best friend but I've been thinking bout him all the time.

On the Veranda 
Up in La Crescenta
I brought the black birds
And an agenda
You brought your young love
You brought your young love
I know he is your best friend but we've been hanging out all the time.

If you just tell me what I gotta do
To get next to him 
'Stead of next of you
What's a girl gonna do?

If we were swimming in the ocean
And a big great white came and 
snuck up from behind
I know this is a shark attack
I've been thinking bout it all the time

If you just tell me what I gotta do
To get next to him 
And away from you
If you just tell me what I gotta do
To get next to him 
'Stead of next of you
What's a girl gonna do?

There's no need to justify or categorize each others company
There's no need to justify or categorize each others company
There's no need
