Steve Harley - Only You lyrics



I have been living a life of a sad lost soul

With a head full of guilt and pain

Like a messenger carrying bad news home

I was torn between the lost and the gain

Sometimes I thought survival was only a hopeless compromise

Many times I felt like praying

Chorus

Then I saw you dancing like a fire

Only you as bright as any sun

And me, I was looking for something for so long then

Only you came to me

I had been (was) travelling lonely from town to town

On a road to find eternal youth

I was hiding my eyes from my life

I was afraid to face the truth

(I was afraid I had to face the truth)*

No message in the Bible, no no

No flash of lightning in the sky

No compromise or pity

Chorus

I was falling to parts for since who knows when

I didn't know whom to thank or to blame

Not a comfort in messages ten by ten

They said the bottle of eternal shame

No bolts of thunder in the sky, no no

(No symbols of denials, no patronizing pity)*

Chorus

Only you, dancing like a fire

Only you, as bright a any sun

And me, I was looking for love for so long

Only you came to me, ya ya

And me, I was looking for love for so long then

Only you came to me

Direct from Steve's lyric sheet

Felt like quitting

The loss and the gain

Hiding my eyes from a life going wrong

Afraid to have to face the truth

Falling apart since who knows when...

'n all the comforting messages, ten by ten,

They said the bottle'll bring eternal shame
