Cut to the Chase - Morcheeba

Just don’t forget

that it’s dumb luck that got you here

don’t fool yourself

misfortunes waiting for the best time to appear

to make it clear

that all the courage and the talent that you had

was just in dreams

and when you wake up

you will beg to get it back

to get it back

You can’t trust your friends

they will betray you

with the love that’s blinding

and then at the end they may admit

that you were missing something

and no one remembers even one word that left your mouth

all the melodies were stolen

from songs by someone else

you’re out of time

and inspiration filled with self-pity and fear

and all the dreams that haven’t dried up

are slowly drowning in your tears

in your tears

Just don’t forget

that it’s dumb luck that got you here

don’t fool yourself

misfortunes waiting for the best time to appear

to make it clear

that all the courage and the talent that you have

was just in dreams

and when you wake up

you will beg to get it back

to get it back
