lyrics

I Got A Message
I took the last train to hell on my porch
I didn’t know what to think
There was nothing I could do with my thoughts
They kept my soul in the sink
And I sort of stopped - knowing what I was
Something had shifted - And I saw the loss
I got a message to face the fact
I wouldn’t get any younger
It told me something about the track
I was meant to be on
I climbed the wreckage right out of the bar
And met her there on the brink
She rode rings round the rest of the girls
We spent the night on the drink
Then I saw the light shining in her eyes
Something was different and I changed that night
I got a message to face the fact
I wouldn’t get any younger
It told me something about the track
That I was meant to be on
She punched a hole in my astronaut suit
I didn’t stand a chance
Pushed me out with a parachute
I had to get out and dance
I got a message to face the fact
I wouldn’t get any younger
You told me something about the track
That I was meant to be on...
