The starting Line

(2x) This town was a lovers stage but now you can't recognise the streetlights that are daggers to your eyes You can't find your bearings you're slipping into the ground The scene has no colour and no sound.   You still believe in me after the things I've done You fear for what we have become The ground is uneven you stumble from day to day You tread where its easy although your feet are like lead and you gotta get underway Drag your heart up to the starting line Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time Its too easy to get left behind I know you've been kicked around but tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me.             Each heart is a paper kite blown around by the breeze Love wont rest till it brings you to your knees Some find it easy some will never even know You think youve done your journey then you stumble and find that theres such a long way to go Drag your heart up to the starting line Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time Its too easy to get left behind I know you've been kicked around You wanna be lost but now your found lets take the back way into town Drink to the bad times Lay them down on me              Girl I still believe in you your too good to fall so low we're gonna find a better life I know Things will be clearer as soon as we make a start we'll be that much nearer we're too old to just stand here waiting to break apart Drag your heart up to the starting line Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time Its too easy to get left behind I know you've been kicked around but tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me.  On me...    On me...
