Paul Weller - Frightened lyrics

1.

I shakes and fall

Underneath my sheets

The sunlight creeping

From my head down to my feet

Telling me to rise

And face the light again

2.

I plead to dawn

"Don't make me move"

I just want to vanish

And forget all that's true

Just one more night

And i'll be alright

Br.

Hoping to be everything you want

Wish I was the man that you thought I was

Waiting to fly up on eagles wings

But truth be told - I'm not that bold - at all

Ch.

I'm more frightened

White Lightening

So sudden and blinding

Yet no more enlightened

Just a little more frightened

3.

I'm gonna get it back

I'm gonna get it soon

I've just got to catch up

For my world to resume

To be light

And to hold you tight while you dream

4.

And I stand alone

So does everyone

It brings us closer together

As a strange distant sum

So nar so far

Br.

Hoping to be everything you want

Wish I was the man that you thought I was

Waiting to fly up on eagles wings

But truth be told - I'm not that bold - at all

Ch.

I'm just frightened

Woke up this morning like that

And all the roads that lead back

Lead me nothing that is nowhere

-Lonely

Ch.

-And just a little more frightened

White Lightening

So sudden and blinding

Yet no more enlightened

Just a little more frightened
