The Fixx - Going Without Lyrics
Time, time, time againI lose control of the situationI go spinning 'round this helpless universeWhy, why, why? I cryWill I ever understandThis complicated web of liesDesigned to shield my sense of pride?And tomorrow, when it breaksWill I have the strength to faceAnother stupid, silly scene?Can't you tell me what it means?I've been without for so longI've been without and you get me wrongI've been without for so longDeep, deep, deep desire to fly awayCan't get much higher than a falling stoneThat's been thrown from a bridgeScream, scream, scream aboutThe lack of purpose in my lifeThat seems to magnify a scary sense of doubtAnd tomorrow, when it breaksWill I have the strength to faceAnother stupid, silly scene?Can't you tell me what it means?I've been without for so longI've been without and you get me wrongI've been without for so longAll the feelings I scornedAll the bridges I burnedYou'd think a grown man would have learnedTo shield his eyes from the lightFace his demons in the nightAnd be sane again by morning lightSweet morning lightSweet morning lightYeahYeahI'd like to pride myself on being a man who gets by in the endWhen all I'm left is circumstance and a chance to make amendsJust a little self respect because the smile makes the man, you knowI've been without for so longI've been without and you get me wrongI've been without for so longI've been without and you get me wrongChance to make amends'Cause the smile makes the man, you know
