M People - Last night 10,000 lyrics

Written by - Mike Pickering, Paul Heard, Heather Small

Don't let the rain wash my heart

I've love in here but where do I start.

No more life to my shoes.

Don't look my way you know I'm bad news.

Feel the tears on my cheek.

Abuse me now `cause I've got to eat.

Where was last night I forget.

This ain't no big issue just life and death.

Last night 10,000

out in the rain

bellowing silence

maybe it's now or never again.

Eyes are down looking in

I'm sorry but I'm not on your screen.

I hold a cup in my hand

to help me reach my own promised land.

Crown of thorns on my head

wrapped up in my own cardboard bed.

I got youth by my side

a victim of your crime nothing to hide.

Last night 10,000

out in the rain

bellowing silence

maybe it's now or never again.

I'll do anything to forget

after all what is there left.

But in the black of night

frosty stars and vice.

I'm too old to learn

too young to burn

And as you walk by with ghosts in your eyes

the World still turns.
