Love Forty Down Songtext

von Frank Turner

I'm love forty down
As the match slips away from me
I need the crowd to pray for me
To turn this one around
I've worked far to hard to be this far from victory

And I'm battered an I'm bruised
And I can't afford to lose

I'm love forty down
As the day slips away from me
I have to say that honestly
I still haven't found
The person who can take the strain of duece advantage back again

So I'll do this on my own
There's no-one waiting when I'm done

In the time it takes for serve to rise and fall
We'll find out if I am man or mouse if I am set to rise or fall

Well I'm love forty down
And I can well recall the age my father reached the acient age
That I'm now staring down
Through the barrel of my fourth decade and honestly I am afraid

And I'm long in the tooth
And I'm ready for the truth

In the time it takes for the serve to rise and fall
Well find out if I am man or mouse if I am set to rise or fall

In the time it takes for the umpire to flip his coin
Well find out if I take the strain if I can make it through break point

I'm love forty down
I gotta turn this one around
I'm love forty down
I gotta turn this one around

Break Point
(I'm love forty down)

Break Point
(I'm love forty down)

I gotta turn this one around
