lyrics

If the timing is wrong and music is crass
And the melody sucks I'll be taken to task
For trying to write in tablets of stone
With broken scissors and an old megaphone

If the dreams that you have all fade and die
And the sadness returns when there is no reply
If the song in your head can never be heard
Then all I can do is give you my word

All I wanted to say from the bottom of heart
Sounds like an obvious line for the part
But I want you to know I'm here for you
Whatever comes around that much I know is true

When it all fades away into second hand art
I will take to the stage and die on my arse
But I want you to know this song is for you
And its dying from trying to reach you

All I have to say as we come to an end
My love remains strong on that you can depend
I just want you to know I'm here for you
Like Elvis Costello my aim is true

So here I go again sharing my fears
A cabaret singer nobody hears
In the lap of the gods on a wing and a prayer
Still missing you dearly and lost in despair

Still missing you dearly and lost in despair
