Mike + The Mechanics - One Left Standing Lyrics

Mike and the Mechanics - On Left standing

I been keeping it to myself
I been thinking about it all day long
I got nobody I can blame
They say what goes around surely comes around

I wouldn't dream of trying to complicate your life
You don't need to change anything you do

Because
I don't want it all
I just need some time
A piece of love that I can hold on to
I don't want it all
I just need to feel
Something good is happening in my life

I read my paper and get depressed
No point in hanging around waiting for a call
I don't expect you to read my mind
This time I'm going to tell you exactly how I feel

I need the thought of stealing a moment with you
So I can just keep holding on

Because
I don't want it all
I just need some time
A piece of love that I can hold on to
I don't want it all
I just need to feel
Something good is happening in my life

Do you think you want to be free this time
I'll do anything to make you mine
I'll do anything

I don't want it all
I just need some time
A piece of love that I can hold on to
I don't want it all
I just need to feel
Something good is happening in my life

I don't want it all
I just need some time
A piece of love that I can hold on to
I don't want it all
I just need to feel
Something good is happening in my life

I been keeping it to myself
Thinking about it all day long
I just need some time
I don't want it all
I just need to feel something good
I just need some time

I just need some time
A piece of love that I can hold on to
I don't want it all
I just need to feel
Something good is happening in my life

I don't want it all
I just need some time
A piece of love that I can hold on to
I don't want it all
I just need to feel
Something good is happening in my life

I don't want it all
I just need some time
A piece of love that I can hold on to
