Back For My Life

(album: Aeronautics - 2005)

I'm wide awake with the sacred sun
Sending echoes out to distant places
I hear the watch ticking on your wrist
Sleeping beauty I could not resist you
My head is aching from yesterday
Feeling guilty must be on my way

There's a voice deep inside of me
It took me by surprise
Now I know where my heart lies

I'm crawling back for my life
Pleading to my love
I've been lost in my desire
I was drinking, wasn't thinking
And I'm sorry if it makes you cry, oh yeah

You call me up on the telephone
You say you need me cause you're cold and lonely
Tempted by you, but I have to stay
Could never walk away from my girl

There's a voice deep inside of me
It took me by surprise
Now I know where my soul lies, oh yeah
A feeling I can't deny
It made me realise
Now I know why my heart cries

Crawling back for my life
Begging to my love
I've been lost inside the fire
I was drinking, wasn't thinking
And I didn't mean to make you cry
I was breaking the rule
Acting like a fool
Getting close to you
I was a chancer, a fake romancer
But now I know where my heart is true
Where my heart is true

Yeah yeah

I was breaking the rule
Acting like a fool
Getting close to you

Crawling back for my life
Pleading to my love
I've been lost in my desire
I was drinking, wasn't thinking
And I'm sorry if it makes you cry
I was breaking the rule
Acting like a fool
Getting close to you
I was a chancer, a fake romancer
But now I'm home where my heart is true
Where my heart is true
