I was half in mind -
I was half in need,
And as the rain came down -
I dropped to my knees and prayed
I said ";oh Heavenly thing -
please cleanse my soul,
I've seen all on offer
and I'm not impressed at all";.
I was halfway home -
I was half insane,
And every shop window
I looked in just looked the same
I said send me a sign
to save my life
'Cause at this moment in time
there is nothing certain in
these day's of mine
Y'see it's a frightening thing
when it dawns upon you
That I know as much as the day
I was born
And though I wasn't asked
(I might as well stay)
And promise myself
each and every day - that -
When you're knocked on your back -
an' your life's a flop
and when you're down on the bottom
there's nothing else
but to shout to the top - shout!
