Voice In My Head Songtext / Lyric

Sayer



I'm stronger than an ox, Iron to the core

Getting bolder every day, now I live outside the law

I don't even get the blues, not anymore

'Cos I've found the perfect place, we're all looking for



Ah but each time I try to fly

The voice in my head

Says get back to the drawing board and start again…



And I need you, and I want you

Gotta have you, and I can't let go, no I can't let go



I can walk into a room and I know just where to stand

I can talk to anyone like a confidential man

I got all the clever lines, and I know all the moves

I'm a perfect suit of clothes, in the perfect pair of shoes



Ah but each time I try to fly

The voice in my head

Says get down to the bottom boy, and start again…






And I need you, and I want you

Gotta have you, 'cos I can't let go, no I can't let go



I was dyin' of thirst, and looking my worst when I came in here …mmm

Now I stand alone in the the night, wondering what is right

Why you came in here

I can't stay in here



I don't hang around no more, the places that we used to

I guess I've learned a little, and I know what I should do

I've become a little quieter, a little more contained

You could say I'm waiting – waiting for a change



Ah but each time I try to fly

The voice in my head

Says get back to the drawing board, and try again…



And I need you, and I want you

Gotta have you, and I can't let go, no I can't let go

And I feel you, 'cos I failed you

And I lost you, but I can't let go, no I can't let go

And I love you, and I want you

More than ever, but I can't let go – no I can't let go….
