Rod Stewart - Around The Plynth lyrics

(rod stewart, ron wood) Woken up on mornings such as this And thought exactly the same as i'm thinking now. Every night for a year i've slept alone. Cold damp room looks worse than me, no no no Got a fear of d**h that creeps on every night. I know i won't die soon, but then again i might, Water down the drain, i'm wasting away. And doctors can't help me a ghost of a man that's me, no no Water down the drain goes to the sea, The pattern of my life keeps a-haunting me. Moisture from the ocean fills the sky, Come on down to the ground as the time goes by, no no no no no Slow down there I never found out the reason why Why my parents had to lie About the place that i was born And from my hometown i was torn At the tender age of four I was livin' by a homemade law I never knew when it was to be laid My desires are never displayed I never knew what it was to be loved I never knew what it was to be laid I never knew what it was to win I never knew what it was to be loved, nonono Ah, get on up there I never knew what it was to be loved I never knew what it was to be laid Nonononono Slow down there
