Steve Harley - Only You lyrics

I have been living a life of a sad lost soul With a head full of guilt and pain Like a messenger carrying bad news home I was torn between the lost and the gain Sometimes I thought survival was only a hopeless compromise Many times I felt like praying Chorus Then I saw you dancing like a fire Only you as bright as any sun And me, I was looking for something for so long then Only you came to me I had been (was) travelling lonely from town to town On a road to find eternal youth I was hiding my eyes from my life I was afraid to face the truth (I was afraid I had to face the truth)* No message in the Bible, no no No flash of lightning in the sky No compromise or pity Chorus I was falling to parts for since who knows when I didn't know whom to thank or to blame Not a comfort in messages ten by ten They said the bottle of eternal shame No bolts of thunder in the sky, no no (No symbols of denials, no patronizing pity)* Chorus Only you, dancing like a fire Only you, as bright a any sun And me, I was looking for love for so long Only you came to me, ya ya And me, I was looking for love for so long then Only you came to me Direct from Steve's lyric sheet Felt like quitting The loss and the gain Hiding my eyes from a life going wrong Afraid to have to face the truth Falling apart since who knows when... 'n all the comforting messages, ten by ten, They said the bottle'll bring eternal shame
