China Drum - All I Wanna Be lyrics

rate me

There's a time when I wish there were no words for it

There's a moment when I think it's gone too far

When I couldn't get round to even think of it

I wish I hadn't taken this so far

But you said it

I never wanted to hear it

You knew I couldn't bear it

But still you kept on sharing it

I've got a fortified right to fear it

'Cause I know this time you mean it

If you ever place yourself near me

It's gonna rip my head apart

Cause, it's all I wanna be I realise I'm nowhere near it

It's all I wanna be but I still grab my chance

It's all I wanna see I see the gap but I won't clear it

It's all I wanna take it's in my reach but I can't feel it

It's never gonna be that way

Cause everytime I'll do it my own way

Today I took a look at my possessions

Piled up in a room I didn't know

This morning I woke up with no discretion

I wish you hadn't taken it so far

But I said it

I wanted you to hear it

You took it in your stride

And now you're disappearing

Cause, it's all I wanna be I realise I'm nowhere near it

It's all I wanna be but I still grab my chance

It's all I wanna see I see the gap but I won't clear it

It's all I wanna take it's in my reach but I can't feel it

It's never gonna be the same

It's never gonna be that way

There's nothing I could ever say

'Cause every time I'll do it my own way

I've got a fortified right to fear it

'Cause I know this time I mean it

If I ever place myself near you

It's gonna rip my head apart

Cause, it's all I wanna be I realise I'm nowhere near it

It's all I wanna be but I still grab my chance

It's all I wanna see I see the gap but I won't clear it

It's all I wanna take it's in my reach but I can't feel it

It's never gonna be that way

It's never gonna be the same

You can pin me to the chair and make me stay

But there's nothing I could ever say

To prove to you that it's ok

It doesn't matter what you say

You can pin me to the chair and make me stay

But every time I'll do it my own way
