lyrics

Death in the springtime can darken your summer
Love in the winter can blow an autumn breeze
See there's no way of tellin' what's round the corner
So don't you go selling me any guarantees

Cos I'm only flesh and bone
This world will never be my home
I'm just doing time for bad behaviour
But i'm getting stronger every time i walk a mile
In the footsteps of my saviour

It's good to work and it's good to make plans
Cos we were meant to use our hands
But I don't wanna fall in love with dreams that rip
And I know this big dark hole
Just can't be filled with gold
Or even a kiss of your sweet lips

Cos I'm only flesh and bone
This world will never be my home
I'm just doing time for bad behaviour
But i'm getting stronger every time i walk a mile
In the footsteps of my saviour
Yeah I'm only flesh and bone
This world will never be my home
I'm just doing time for bad behaviour
But i'm getting stronger every time i walk a mile
In the footsteps of my saviour
