All The Lost Souls

James Blunt All The Lost Souls Album

10.I Can't Hear The Music

Is it a warning?
Is it an evil sign?
Is it a people
who have lost their mind?
Is it the darkness?
Is it a man resigned?
Is it a best friend
leaving you behind?
This is never gonna stop.
They will never let you go.
You're in a rush.
They don't care enough.
'Cause their lives are very slow.
Time is ticking on.
Too long to fake your smile.
But then you sold your soul for a leading role
So wear it for a while.
And if I can't hear the music
And the audience is gone
I'll dance here on my own.
And I hope the lonely hearts club band
Will play out one last song
Before the sun goes down.
And is it evil?
Should it really make you sick?
Is now the time that you realize
you'd better get out quick?
Time is ticking on.
Too long to fake your smile.
But then you sold your soul for a leading role
So wear it for a while.
And if I can't hear the music
And the audience is gone
I'll dance here on my own.
And I hope the lonely hearts club band
Will play out one last song
Before the sun goes down.
And there she goes
And there she goes
So 'round you'll see me run
'Cause Billy's got himself a gun
And you're right to be afraid
They'll send you to your grave
'Cause it's strange and new
So 'round you'll see me run
'Cause Billy's got himself a gun
And you're right to be afraid
They'll send you to your grave
'Cause it's strange and new
And if I can't hear the music
And the audience is gone
I'll dance
