[00:25.51] |
I was choking on a cornflake |
[00:27.99] |
You said "Have some toast instead" |
[00:32.75] |
I was sleeping maybe three hours |
[00:35.99] |
You said "You should get to bed" |
[00:40.13] |
I was waiting at the church door |
[00:42.97] |
For the minister to show |
[00:45.71] |
|
[00:47.48] |
I was looking at the new year |
[00:50.23] |
You said "Walk before you crawl" |
[00:58.73] |
I was feeling like a loser |
[01:01.13] |
You said "Hey, you've still got me" |
[01:05.81] |
I was feeling pretty lonely |
[01:08.49] |
You said "You wanted to be free" |
[01:13.28] |
I was looking for a good time |
[01:15.89] |
You said "Let the good times start" |
[01:20.57] |
With a quiver of your eyelid |
[01:23.40] |
You took on someone else's part |
[01:26.76] |
|
[01:27.13] |
But what about me |
[01:30.30] |
I don't really see |
[01:34.13] |
How things will improve |
[01:36.85] |
If all you want is to stay... |
[01:38.83] |
|
[01:39.52] |
Maybe I'm a little greedy |
[01:41.83] |
You said "Think before you speak" |
[01:46.54] |
Sometimes I'm a little seedy |
[01:49.18] |
You said "Everyone is weak" |
[01:53.88] |
Now I feel a little better |
[01:56.54] |
Is there something I can do? |
[02:01.31] |
But I never heard the answer |
[02:04.24] |
I never had a clue |
[02:07.14] |
|
[02:07.46] |
But what about me |
[02:11.01] |
I don't really see |
[02:14.58] |
How things will improve |
[02:17.25] |
If all you want is to stay |
[02:19.63] |
The lights are on in the house tonight |
[02:21.18] |
Going to creep around going to creep into your head |
[02:24.72] |
All you want is to stay loose |
[02:26.78] |
|
[03:08.38] |
There's a little echo calling |
[03:10.84] |
Like a miner trapped inside |
[03:14.83] |
If I tell her of this moment |
[03:17.39] |
She will in me doubts confide |
[03:21.24] |
And she's on me like a blanket |
[03:23.55] |
Like a stalk of wilting grass |
[03:27.59] |
I'm not sure about her motives |
[03:30.37] |
I'm not sure about her past |
[03:32.92] |
|
[03:36.84] |
But my faith is like a bullet |
[03:39.44] |
My belief is like a bolt |
[03:43.26] |
The only thing that lets me sleep at night |
[03:45.96] |
A little carriage of the soul |
[03:49.58] |
If it starts a little bleaker |
[03:52.55] |
Then the year may yet be gold |
[03:55.95] |
Happiness is not for keeping |
[03:59.09] |
Happiness is not my goal |
[04:01.84] |
|
[04:02.07] |
So what about me |
[04:05.53] |
I don't really see |
[04:09.34] |
How things will improve |
[04:11.66] |
All you want is to stay loose |
[04:15.22] |
|
[04:16.61] |
Oh what about them |
[04:20.01] |
You play mother hen |
[04:23.14] |
To a gaggle of gangling youth |
[04:26.36] |
All you want is to stay |
[04:28.74] |
The lights are on in the house tonight |
[04:30.33] |
Going to creep around going to creep into your head |
[04:33.67] |
All you want is to stay |
[04:36.05] |
|
[04:36.79] |
I was living through the seconds |
[04:39.33] |
My composure was a mess |
[04:43.35] |
I was miles from tenderness |
[04:46.51] |
It was dark outside, the day it was lying in pieces |
[04:54.94] |
Everything is flat and dreary |
[04:57.90] |
I couldn't care what's in the news |
[05:01.51] |
Television is the blues |
[05:05.27] |
Television is hysterical laughter of people |
[05:11.01] |
|
[05:12.75] |
And I know it could be me |
[05:15.63] |
I'm always asking for more |
[05:20.03] |
I keep running round in circles |
[05:23.97] |
I keep looking for a doorway |
[05:27.30] |
I'm going to need two lives |
[05:29.23] |
To follow the paths I've been taking |
[05:35.80] |
