歌词

[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
[00:47.48] 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
[01:27.13] 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
[01:39.52] 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
[02:07.46] 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
[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
[03:36.84] 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
[04:02.07] 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
[04:16.61] 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
[04:36.79] 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
[05:12.75] 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
