Somewhere Along The Line - Mike + The Mechanics, Paul Carrack

Somewhere along the line

We convince ourselves

Accept the ordinary

Refuse to read the signs

We just can’t see

The extraordinary

Somewhere along the way

Dreams become a burden

I don’t want to hear you say

That you’re not certain of our love

Somewhere behind the sun

All the simple things

Appear as complicated

We substitute the fun

In a complex game

We call sophisticated

Somewhere along the way

Hopes turn to illusion

I don’t want to hear you say

It’s the conclusion of our love

Somewhere along the way

We lose imagination

It’s new just to hear you say

In celebration of our love

Somewhere along the line

We convince ourselves

Accept the ordinary

Refuse to read the signs

We just can’t see

The extraordinary

Somewhere along the line

Somewhere along the line

Somewhere along the line

Somewhere along the line
