Erasure - Storm In A Teacup lyrics

I'm just saying

I want my mummy back

Lost her to the drink

But her soul's intact

Mama said to me

Be proud of who you are

She saw Jesus in the eyes

Of a broken man

Sail away

I am learning my lesson

Mama sends her love

And Godspeed you come home soon

One little white lie was enough

To conceal my goodbye

Then I stole away

Kissed her farewell

And wished her the best for life

Then I stole away, woah

Like a thief in the night

I'm just saying

Not behind daddy's back

He takes care of her

In his overtime

He's no saint I know

As he goes around the town

Watch him cry himself to sleep

He's my daddy

Sail away

I will go it alone now

Leave my past behind

To seek fortune and fame

One little white lie was enough

To conceal my goodbye

Then I stole away

Kissed her farewell

And wished her the best for life

Then I stole away, woah

Like a thief in the night

Sail away

There's a storm in a teacup

Mama sends her love

And Godspeed you come home

One little white lie was enough

To conceal my goodbye

Then I stole away

Kissed her farewell

And wished her the best for life

Then I stole away, woah

Like a thief in the night

One little white lie was enough

To conceal my goodbye

Then I stole away

Like a prodigal son

And wished her the best for life

Then I stole away, woah

Like a thief in the night
