Common Children - Drought lyrics

Reason for Living

b-side of 'Queen of My Heart' CD1 | released in UK 5 November 2001

Shane:

I lie here lonely thinking

How could this ever happen

Is it real, am I dreaming

And when your hearts been burned

How can someone learn

To get over thier fears

Nicky:

You told me I should be strong

Oh I'm trying

I feel I can't go on

You left me here on my own

CHORUS

Without a reason for living

A chance for forgiving

A time to make it Okay

And now I'm stuck with the vision

Of my indecision

Taking it all away....... from me

Bryan:

With all the time you're taking

Slowly my hearts been breaking

You've been fine

I've been bleeding

I'll have to wait my turn

Your respect I'll earn

No more joking or teasing

Bryan:

You told me I should be strong

Oh I'm trying

I feel I can't go on

You left me here on my own

CHORUS

Without a reason for living

A chance for forgiving

A time to make it Okay (time to make it okay)

And now I'm stuck with the vision

Of my indecision

Taking it all away

Mark:

A thousand times before

I've been almost sure

This time I need to know

I've spent all my life

Chasing all my dreams

I'm not letting this goooo........

Mark:

Yeah

OOhhhhhhhh

Laeeee........

In my yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Ooooooooohhhhhhh.............

CHORUS

Without a reason for living

A chance for forgiving

A time to make it Okay

And now I'm stuck with the vision

Of my indecision

Taking it all away X2
