Storm In A Teacup - Erasure

I’m just saying I want my mummy back

Lost her to the drink but her soul’s intact

Mama said to me be proud of who you are

She saw Jesus in the eyes of a broken man

Sail away, I am learning my lesson

Mama sends her love and Godspeed you come home

One little white lie was enough to conceal my goodbye

Then I stole away

Kissed her farewell and wished her the best for her life

Then I stole away like a thief in the night

I’m just saying not behind daddy’s back

He takes care of her in his overtime

He’s no saint I know as he goes around the town

Watch him cry himself to sleep, he’s my daddy

Sail away, I will go it alone now

Leave my past behind to seek fortune and fame

Sail away, there’s a storm in a teacup

Mama sends her love and Godspeed you come home

One little white lie was enough to conceal my goodbye

Then I stole away

Kissed her farewell and wished her the best for her life

Then I stole away woah like a thief in the night

One little white lie was enough to conceal my goodbye

Then I stole away

Like a prodigal son and wished her the best for her life

Then I stole away woah like a thief in the night
