This town was a lovers stage But now you can't recognise The streetlights that are daggers to your eyes You can't find your bearings Your slipping into the ground The scene has no colour and no sound.
You still believe in me After the things I've done You fear for what we have become The ground is uneven You stumble from day to day You tread where it's easy Although your feet are like lead And you gotta get underway
Drag your heart up to the starting line Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time It's too easy to get left behind I know youve been kicked around But tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me. [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/keane-the-starting-line-lyrics.html ] Each heart is a paper kite blown around by the breeze Love wont rest till it brings you to your knees Some find it easy, some will never even know You think youve done your journey, Then you stumble and find that there's such a long way to go
Drag your heart up to the starting line Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time It's too easy to get left behind I know youve been kicked around You wanna be lost but now your found Lets take the back way into town Drink to the bad times Lay them down on me
Girl, I still believe in you Your too good to fall so low Were gonna find a better life I know Things will be clearer As soon as we make a start Well be that much nearer Were too old to just stand here waiting to break apart
Drag your heart up to the starting line Forget the ghosts that make you old before your time It's too easy to get left behind I know youve been kicked around But tie up your thoughts and lay them down on me. On me, on me...
