This Time Lucky

(album: How Still The River - 2020)

City lights have passed me by
Back with the dreams I left behind
A blind reflection of your eyes
Weighing so heavy on my mind

Love, don't be so serious
You shouldn't talk so loud
To give everything I've got
Is the only way I know
So I gave it all to you

It's getting late and I can't sleep
Without you
Oh loneliness you're mine again
Wooo
I was, hiding behind barricades you tore them down
My heart, what a mess you've made this time around
I don't know how I thought that I might be
This time lucky

Finally home and skies are grey
And you are gone without a trace
I feel I've nothing left to say
Can't help feeling out of place

Love, why are you so serious
You shouldn't talk so loud

Its getting late and I can't sleep
Without you
Oh loneliness you're mine again
Woooo
I was, hiding behind barricades you tore them down
My heart, what a mess you've made this time around
I don't know how I thought that I might be
This time lucky

Love, don't be so fearless
When there's so much to lose

Hiding behind barricades you tore them down
My heart, what a mess you've made this time around
I don't know how I thought that I might be
This time lucky
