And so I'm back and I am stuck here in the same room
A thorough shuffle to the mail my first excuse
not to immediately face the day's agenda
Some very awkward words I need be telling you
of a feeling that in motion through I've carried
for it to be worn off upon return
that grew inside me like a credit taken
in a currency I could no longer earn
No better way, no other time,
no other call, no better line,
as soon as now, within your room
it can't go on I'm not in love with you
My mouth has got a funny taste of metal,
a pencil line's been drawn upon my face
Weight has come to hang around my shoulders
for the knowledge of a doubt I can't erase
Hey boy you never finish what you've started
says the man I wanna be who I am not
who will sacrifice his part as easy lover
to never be the one who holds and drops

thanks sir! it is.seismic1 wrote:Short and sweet, I must have missed this first time around. I love the bassline, both the sounds and the melody. As far as I'm concerned this is the original (until I listen to it, that is). Is that Drumatic? It's got that Talking Heads live Pscho Killer sound.
Good work
the original is (as always) a lot better.
it was Erlands lyric which grabbed me

Prefer your version. You're a more charismatic singer. Very nice.
The kick drum tramples the vocal from time to time on my speakers.

Never heard this before. Really nice. "Never finish what you started" ... you been watchin' me mate? 
It wasn't me! (well, actually, it probably was) - apparently no longer an 'elderly', now a 'senior'! Is that promotion?
