I was waiting for you
|
I was sat in the sun
|
I could picture your face on the tip of my tongue
|
I woke up laughing
|
I broke into a sweat
|
I broke into a run
|
You were hot in my heels so I hired a gun
|
I woke up laughing
|
I was taking a plunge
|
I was flat on my back
|
It was making a stand but my plan was undone
|
Well I planned an escape for the middle of june
|
I woke up laughing
|
But I drug too fast and I fire too soon
|
I woke up laughing
|
Woke up laughing
|
|
You make yourself a fortune, out in hong kong
|
You sit at home and wonder whether you were wrong
|
You take a small vacation just to keep sane
|
You find on your return your home has blown away
|
|
You meditate, you make haste
|
You run a risk, you come late,
|
You pay a bill, you lose face
|
You're not fully unaware
|
Your star or your fate
|
If you fall do you break
|
You go to war, you make love
|
You sign out in a box
|
|
[Repeat whole song]
