How many days will the wet weather last? |
|
I want to know will the clouds, when they roll back |
|
Reveal a man in an old mac |
|
Living on a park bench, sitting on his own? |
|
Cut to the rain as it runs down the glass |
|
Eventually through the lightning and thunder |
|
We see a man going under |
|
This is how it happens, this is what he said |
|
I don't need love |
|
Though temptation is sweet |
|
Give me your hand |
|
'Til I'm back on my feet |
|
You're always telling me |
|
About my misery |
|
I've seen things you'll never see |
|
Don't pity me |
|
Focus in on the breath of a man |
|
Who takes a brown paper bag from his knapsack |
|
Between his whispers and wise cracks |
|
He's looking for permission, screaming at the sky |
|
I don't need love |
|
Though temptation is sweet |
|
Give me your hand |
|
'Til I'm back on my feet |
|
You're always telling me |
|
About my misery |
|
I've seen things you'll never see |
|
Don't pity me |
|
I'll be right again |
|
Be upright without you |
|
I'll stand up again |
|
Kick up a fuss again too |
|
Cut back again to a girl walking by |
|
Until the feet that are all shoes and no socks |
|
Climb an invisible soap box |
|
Laughing at the traffic, shouting at the world |
|
I don't need love |
|
Though temptation is sweet |
|
Give me your hand |
|
'Til I'm back on my feet |
|
You're always telling me |
|
About my misery |
|
I've seen things you'll never see |
|
Don't pity me |
|
I'll stand up again |
|
Kick up a fuss again too |
|
I'll be right again |
|
Be upright without you |
|
We see a life through the eyes of a man |
|
As he live and he dies by a simple tattoo |
|
I'll be back again |
|
When I land on my feet |
|
I'll stand up again |
|
Kick up a fuss again, wouldn't you? |
|
Well, there you go, though we tried hard to know him |
|
It's there on his face, he's a case where there's clearly no hope |
|
Give me your hand again |
|
'Til I land again |
|
His face starts to fade as we pull down the shade |
|
And the picture we made is in glorious cinema scope |
|
I'll be back |
|
I'll be back |
|
I'll be back |
