Mike & The Mechanics - One Left Standing lyrics

rate me

You've got to hold on tonight

Do you think that it's easy trying to take me for a ride?

Signs.... time that you recognised them

Doesn't work anymore, it's gone and you can't make it right

Please just read my lips, get the message now baby

I been tangled enough, don't get me caught up again

Time I've lost count of the times I've been had do you blame me

But enough of this madness, no more to say it's been said

All this time I've been holding it together

If you walked a mile in my shoes you'd know what

I'd been going through

How many times can we go back?

Make the same mistakes, it's written all over your face

You and I were a river flowing

Now the tide has turned and all of my tears have run dry

How come I am the one left standing?

Now I'm drowning inside

All of my tears have run dry

Back right where I started again

But it's hard to forget

Everything's so different then

I would have moved mountains

If you'd asked me to

That's a lifetime ago

You've got to face up to the truth

Forgetting all of our mistakes

I just keep on falling right back in again

You and I were a river flowing

Now the tide has turned

And all of my tears have run dry

How come I am the one left standing?

Now I'm drowning inside

All of my tears have run dry

Turned my back and I don't regret it

One more time would be hell if I let it

Take my word for it, don't forget it

Check my eyes cause my tears have run dry

You and I were a river flowing

Now the tide has turned

And all of me tears have run dry

How come I am the one left standing?

Now I'm drowning inside

All of my tears have run dry
