Lyrics
Out in the garden a bumblebee buzzes by my nose
All the while the kettle's boiled, forgot my toast
These serve as reminders of what really matters most
Just how beautiful life can be
When one allows her to breathe
Let the children have their chance to see
Just how beautiful life can be
Foreign desire, I know not where life will lead
If I'm to inspire, lead by example not by greed
All or not knowing, it's easier than you've been lead to believe
Just how beautiful life can be
When one allows her to breathe
Let the children have their chance to see
Just how beautiful life can be
Just how beautiful life can be
When one allows her to breathe
Let the children have their chance to see
Just how beautiful life can be
Just how beautiful life can be
Let the children have their chance to see
Just how beautiful life can be

Oh man, I'm in tears. Just listened to you guys for the first time. Got a bit homesick but in the nicest way. Thank you, you've brought back many happy memories of walking round Wigan market with my Nan on her shopping days, she'd go get her haircut and we'd come in after and she'd get Uncle Joe's Mint Balls and Cadbury Eclairs. She's still burning through god knows how many bags of eclairs now, not sure what her dentures are made of but it must be steel. This is so beautiful, thank you.

[@yorkshireroots]

Perfect , The Lathums and Wigan Market Nostalgia and down to earth humour Great sound gentlemen and we are just down the road in Leigh You make us proud Lancashire at its best &Your Mum better write some more lyrics

[@northwestmusiccollective1169]

For me, a few words describe this song in a simple and perfect way: A pretty song which is performed exquisitely. This is a performance that certainly reminds me of The Housemartins, especially the band's performance of 'Caravan of Love', but this is definitely something to be proud of as The Housemartins had many hits and we were introduced to the later and possibly more successful 'The Beautiful South'. Let us wish The Lathums every success and hopefully, one day, the band will have a number one single like Paul Heaton had with 'Caravan of Love' and 'A Little Time'.

[@janenorburn5836]

[@boydegg]

I've watched this so many times and just noticed today the little detail of a girl in a yellow and black jumper walking past as he sings 'a bumblebee buzzes by my nose'. Cool!

[@chadballsac]

Utterly derivative. 00s UK indie was terrible in the 00s, we certainly don't need a rehash now lmao

[@ACook94]

Id argue we dont “need” any certain genre over another

[@chadballsac]

@@ACook94 some genres push things forward and open space for people to explore new ideas
