Lyrics
[Verse 1]
So put a spanner in the works of your mind
It's easier to work but I don't mind
You're bitter in defeat so just don't try
To take away all the things so dear in my life
[Verse 2]
I have to break down all the corners of the world
Don't heap this praise on me, I know I don't deserve it
But what's all this I see? Yeah, you're leaving right beside me
And I miss you and I need you
I do
[Verse 3]
But don't go, take my love
I won't let you, I'm saying please don't go
Don't go, take my love
I won't let you, I'm saying please don't go
[Verse 4]
Well, leave your lover now, it's your turn
And see your mother now, I hope she's okay
You're bitter in defeat so let's not try
To take away all the things so dear in our lives
[Verse 5]
I have to break down all the corners of the world
Don't heap this praise on me, I know I don't deserve it
But what's all this I see? Yeah, you're leaving right beside me
And I miss you and I need you
I do
[Verse 6]
But don't go, take my love
I won't let you, I'm saying please don't go
Don't go, take my love
I won't let you, I'm saying please don't go
[Verse 7]
All of my life
Trying to understand
All of my life
Trying to hold a hand
[Verse 8]
I have to break down all the corners of this world
Don't heap this praise on me, I know I don't deserve it
What's all this I see? Yeah, you're leaving right beside me
And I miss you, and I love you
And that's true
