Robert Palmer - Woke Up Laughing lyrics

(robert palmer)<br><br>I was waiting for you<br>I was sat in the sun<br>I could picture your face on the tip of my tongue<br>I woke up laughing<br>I broke into a sweat<br>I broke into a run<br>You were hot in my heels so I hired a gun<br>I woke up laughing<br>I was flat on my back<br>I was taking a plunge<br>It was making a stand but my plan was undone<br>I woke up laughing<br>Well I planned an escape for the middle of june<br>But I drug too fast and I fire too soon<br>I woke up laughing<br>Woke up laughing<br><br>You make yourself a fortune, out in hong kong<br>You sit at home and wonder whether you were wrong<br>You take a small vacation just to keep sane<br>You find on your return your home has blown away<br>You meditate, you make haste<br>You run a risk, you come late,<br>You pay a bill, you lose face<br>You're not fully unaware<br>Your star or your fate<br>If you fall do you break<br>You go to war, you make love<br>You sign out in a box<br><br>Repeat whole song
