Back in the World Songtext

von David Gray

Every day when I open my eyes now
It feels like a Saturday
Taking down from the shelf all the parts of myself
That I packed away

If it's love put the joy in my heart
Is it God by another name
Who's to say how it goes
All I know is I'm back in the world again

Like the lift of a curse
Got a whole different person inside my head
No more trudging around stony eyed through the town
Like the living dead

If it's love lift us up from the dark
Is it God by another name
Who's to say how it goes
All I know is I'm back in the world again
Back in the world again

It's the only way to be
It's the only way to be
I'm naked like a tree
It's the only way to be
I'm naked like a tree
It's the only way to be
Be

Less than sand on the beach
Staring into the reaches of space and time
I'm singing out words but the voice that I hear
It seems barely mine

If it's love put the song in my heart
Is it God by another name
Whose to say how it goes
All I know is I'm back in the world again
Whose to say how it goes
All I know is I'm back in the world again
Back in the world again

It's the only way to be
It's the only way to be
I'm naked like a tree
It's the only way to be
I'm naked like a tree
It's the only way to be

The only way to be
The only way to be
The only way to be

Every day when I open my eyes
Yeah yeah
Every day when I open my eyes
Yeah yeah
Every day when I open my eyes
Yeah yeah
Every day when I open my eyes
Yeah yeah
