Level 42 - Take A Look lyrics

I`m a ragged man with a ragged heart

But I wear my soul with pride

You can see me on the road

See my carrying my home

And perhaps it seems that I`m all alone

But I`m happy here inside

You can keep your fancy dress

`Cause to me it don`t impress

When I look in your face

That camera smile looks out of place on you

By the look in your eyes

I can see you realize

So lend yourself to me

I`ll show you what could be

Well I`ve come so far down so many roads

I`ve experienced your pain

You know that that`s a fact

I can see the way you act

But I learned to see what was wrong with me

And I won`t go back again

I know I`ve made mistakes

But I also made the break

You surround yourself

With secrets you are afraid to show to the world

You convince yourself

There`s no other way to go don`t you

See the smile on my face

Does it look so out of place

So lend yourself to me

I`ll show you what could be (yes I will)

So many ways

For you to spend the passing days

Loving and living or losing and using

Life is forgiving so use it well

Feeling revealing or wheeling and dealing

Life`s not for stealing and time will tell

Take a look at your face

Take a look at your face

You must surely know

If man made heaven then man made hell

So take a look at yourself

What`s this secret you can`t tell me

(When I look in your face

I see that smile so out of place on you

And by the look in your eyes

I can see you realize, oh yeah)
