Lyrics:

I was lonely I was lost and I was falling in disgrace
I was learning and returning with a smile upon my face
I ran down the winding road and fell wondering on my feet
I tempt fate and won and I can say I had all that I need

When I’m done and when I sleep
I want your love to stay with me
my little wish my little hope
for when I’m cold so cold
I’ll keep your voice forever here
you’re in my head and heart my dear
a pile of slag a melody
that’s what I’ll be
c’est la vie

I was weight down with sorrow till I found the last resort
and my soul is full scars from all the battles that I fought
I broke down a thousand times on this battlefield of life
I tempt fate and won and I can say I did it all right

When I’m done and when I sleep
I want your love to stay with me
my little wish my little hope
for when I’m cold so cold
I’ll keep your voice forever here
you’re in my head and heart my dear
a pile of slag a melody
that’s what I’ll be
c’est la vie

Save your speeches save your tears
save your votes and prick your ears
all you leaguers come along
on the day I’m dead and gone
