Western
Head full of passion
Your head�s full of fear
Plucked from the darkness
It comes from the rear
He�s a typical poison
He�s a tree on the road
Come to disturb you
Come to double your load
When you aren�t wanting
When you are still
In a landscape of flatness
He�s the king of the hill
He�s a drug and a chocolate
That you have to resist, my friend
He�s a fountain of pleasure
That always ends
You�ve been on the scene
Nothing�s left in between
But you�ll never escape if you try
Barefoot and blind, you keep on
Never mind
But that man�s never far away
Now in your solitude (in your solitude)
Defences are low
Curl up and laugh at it (laugh at it)
But your heart�s on the line
Your heart�s on the line
Your heart�s on the line and you�re fine (in your dreams)
In finding the exit
You feel that you�re hot
You think that you�re winning
But you�re obviously not
And you are the victim
And life�s so unfair, my girl
He promised you nothing
But gave you the world
You�ve been on the scene
Nothing�s left in between
But you�ll never escape if you try
Barefoot and blind, you keep on
Never mind
But that man�s never far away
That man�s never far away
That man�s never far away
Ooh, ooh, ooh
(Emma Anderson)
