Another cold London night
I wrap this head around my shoulders, tight
Please excuse me, seems there's someone at my door
I wouldn't leave, but the need is so much more
So much more
Another cold London night
And I'm always walking down the escalator the up way
Please excuse me, I can't seem to get inside
I only wanted to know if you're alive
You're alive... you're alive... you're alive
I got a feeling in me
There's a feeling in me
And I don't know what it is
Don't know what it means
It's a long journey into light
It always seems the furtherest when the end's in sight
Please excuse me, I just need to be outside
Only looking for air to breathe
Air to breathe
I feel alive
(I feel so alive, it's cold tonight
I don't know how to live)
Air to breathe
Sometimes I get to thinkin', baby, when I'm all alone
I could maybe make it on my own
The more, oh, you set me free
The more attractive you seem to be
And my baby
My precious baby
You're my maybe
My only maybe
Sometimes I get to thinkin' when we're on the telephone
Are you really on your own
So more that you set me free
The more deceptive it gets to be
And my baby
My only maybe
You're my baby
My precious maybe
Sometimes I get a feelin' in every part of me
Nothin' is what it seems to be
The more, oh, you set me free
The more addicted I get to be
You're my baby
My only maybe
You're my baby
My precious maybe
Ooh, my baby
Ooh, my baby
My precious baby...
We came, we came, we came again
To stem the tide and point the blame
Came back for more
Came back to see what you had in store
Everyone join the line, everyone
Yeah
So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down
So you wanna make catastrophe?
Won't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody running high
The same, the same, the same again
To steal the time and haunt the graves
Just because it's there
Don't mean you see it anywhere
Maybe it's a trick of the light
Maybe, yeah
So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down
So you wanna make catastrophe?
Don't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody come alive
Yeah
So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, bring 'em down
So you wanna make catastrophe?
Don't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody running high
So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down
So you say we haven't turned around?
So you say we haven't turned around?
Just everybody else is going wrong
Going wrong
(If I lose you could you find me? Or would you walk right by me?)
Is it wicked not to care when they say that you're mistaken
Thinking hopes and lots of dreams that aren't there?
Is it wicked not to care when you've wasted many hours
Talking endlessly to anyone that's there?
I know the truth awaits me
But still I hesitate because of fear
Skipping tickets making rhymes
Is that all that you believe in?
Wearing rags to make you pretty by design
Rusting armour for effect
It's not fun to watch the rust grow
For it will all be over when you're dead
Counting acts and clutching thoughts
By the river where the moss grows
Over rocks the water running all the time
Is it wicked when you smile Even though you feel like crying
Even though you could be sick at any time?
But if there was a sequel
Would you love me as an equal?
Would you love me till I'm dead
Instrumental
If there was a sequel Would you love me like an equal?
Would you love me till I'm dead
And if there was a sequel
Would you love me as an equal?
Would you love me till I'm dead
Or is there someone else instead?
-I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away,
I keep your photograph,I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
(both)- 'Cause i'm broken
when i'm lonesome
And i don't feel right
when you're gone away
You've gone away
you don't feel me here,anymore
-The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high and steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn
and no-one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
(both)-'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
and I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken
when I'm lonesome
and I don't feel right
when you're gone away
(both)'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
and I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
and I dont' feel right
when you're gone away
(both)'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
and I dont' feel right when you're gone
(both)You've gone away
you don't feel me here,anymore
