Round my hometown

Memories are fresh

Round my hometown

Ooh the people I've met

Are the wonders of my world

Are the wonders of my world

Are the wonders of this world

Are the wonders of my world
I like it in the city when the air is so thick and opaque

I love to see everybody in short skirts, shorts and shades

I like it in the city when two worlds collide

You get the people and the government

Everybody taking different sides
Shows that we ain't gonna stand shit

Shows that we are united

Shows that we ain't gonna take it

Shows that we ain't gonna stand shit

Shows that we are united
Round my hometown

Memories are fresh

Round my hometown

Ooh the people I've met
Are the wonders of my world

Are the wonders of my world

Are the wonders of this world

Are the wonders of my world

I thought I knew myself, somehow you know me more

I've never known this, never before

You're the first to make out whenever we are two

I don't know who I'd be if I didn't know you

You're so provocative, I'm so conservative

You're so adventurous, I'm so very cautious, combining

You think we would and we do, but we do, but we do, but we do
Instrumental bit!
Favouritism ain't my thing but,

In this situation I'll be glad...
Favouritism ain't my thing but,in this situation I'll be glad to make an exception
You said I'm stubborn and I never give in

I think you're stubborn 'cept you're always softening

You say I'm selfish, I agree with you on that

I think you're giving out in way too much in fact

I say we've only known each other one year

You say I've known you longer my dear

You like to be so close, I like to be alone

I like to sit on chairs and you prefer the floor

Walking with each other, think we'll never match at all, but we do

And I hear your words that I made up

You say my name like there could be an us

I best tidy up my head I'm the only one in love

I'm the only one in love
Each and every time I turn around to leave

I feel my heart begin to burst and bleed

So desperately I try to link it with my head

But instead I fall back to my knees

As you tear your way right through me

I forgive you once again

Without me knowing

You've burnt my heart to stone
And I hear your words that I made up

You say my name like there could be an us

I best tidy up my head I'm the only one in love

I'm the only one in love
Why do you steal my hand

Whenever I'm standing my own ground

You build me up, then leave me dead
Well I hear your words you made up

So I say your name like there could be an us

I best tidy up my head I'm the only one in love

I'm the only one in love

Sometimes sitting in the dark wishing you were here

Turns me crazy,

But it's you who makes me lose my head.
And every time I'm meant to be acting sensible

You drift into my head

And turn me into a crumbling fool.
Tell me to run and I'll race,

If you want me to stop I'll freeze,

And if you are me gonna leave, just hold me closer baby,

And make me crazy for you.

Crazy for you.
Lately with this state I'm in I can't help myself but spin.

I wish you'd come over,

Send me spinning closer to you.
My oh my, how my blood boils, it's sweet taste for you,

Strips me down bare

And gets me into my favourite mood.
I keep on trying, fighting these feelings away,

But the more I do,

The crazier I turn into.
Pacing floors and opening doors,

Hoping you'll walk through

And save me boy,

Because I'm too crazy for you.

Crazy for you

You grace me with your cold shoulder

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

You shower me with words made of knives

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her
These days when I see you

You make it look like see-through

Do tell me why you waste our time

When your heart ain't admitting you're not satisfied

You know I know just how you feel

I'm starting to find myself feeling that way too
When you grace me with your cold shoulder

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

You shower me with words made of knives

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her
Time and time again, I play the role of fool

(Just for you)

Even in the daylight when you ?

(I see you)

Try to look for things I hear but our eyes never find

'Though I do know how you play
You grace me with your cold shoulder

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

You shower me with words made of knives

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her
You grace me with your cold shoulder

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

You shower me with words made of knives

Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

I've made up my mind,

Don't need to think it over

If I'm wrong, I am right

Don't need to look no further,

This ain't lust

I know this is love

But, if I tell the world

I'll never say enough

Cos it was not said to you

And that's exactly what I need to do

If I end up with you



[Chorus]

Should I give up,

Or should I just keep chasin' pavements?

Even if it leads nowhere

Or would it be a waste

Even if I knew my place

Should I leave it there

Should I give up,

Or should I just keep chasin' pavements

Even if it leads nowhere



I build myself up

And fly around in circles

Watin' as my heart drops

And my back begins to tingle

Finally, could this be it



[Chorus]

Or should I give up

Or should I just keep chasin' pavements

Even if it leads nowhere

Or would it be a waste

Even if I knew my place

Should I leave it there



Should I give up

Or should I just keep chasin' pavements

Even if it leads nowhere

Or would it be a waste

Even if I knew my place should I leave it there

Should I give up

Or should I just keep on chasin' pavements

Should I just keep no chasin' pavements

Ohh oh



[Chorus]

That's made you feel a way you've never felt before

And I'm all you need and that you never want more

Then you'd say all of the right things without a clue

But you'd save the best for last

Like I'm the one for you
You should know that you're just a temporary fix

This is not rooted with you it don't mean that much to me

You're just a filler in the space that happened to be free

How dare you think you'd get away with trying to play me
Why is it everytime I think I've tried my hardest

It turns out it ain't enough cause you're still not mentioning love

What am I supposed to do to make you want me properly?

I'm taking these chances and getting away

And though I'm trying my hardest you back to her

And I think that I know things may never change

I'm still hoping one day I might hear you say
I make you feel a way you've never felt before

And I'm all you need and that you never want more

Then you'd say all of the right things without a clue

But you'd save the best for last

Like I'm the one for you
You should know that you're just a temporary fix

This is not rooted with you it don't mean that much to me

You're just a filler in the space that happened to be free

How dare you think you'd get away with trying to play me
But, despite the truth that I know

I find it hard to let go and give up on you

Seems I love the things you do

Like the meaner you treat me the more eager I am

To persist with this heartbreak and running around

And I think that I know things may never change

I'm still hoping one day I might hear you say
I make you feel a way you've never felt before

And I'm all you need and that you never want more

And we'll say all of the right things without a clue

And you'll be the one for me and me the one for you

You can find him sittin' on your doorstep

Waiting for the surprise

It will feel like he's been there for hours

And you can tell that he'll be there for life
Daydreamer, with eyes that make you melt

He lends his coat for shelter because he's there for you when he shouldn't be

But he stays all the same, waits for you and then sees you through

There's no way I could describe him

All I say is, just what I'm hoping for
But I will find him sittin' on my doorstep

Waiting for the surprise

It will feel like he's been there for hours

And I can tell he'll be there for life

And I can tell he'll be there for life
