Leo Sayer - Voice in My Head lyrics

I'm stronger than an ox, Iron to the core
Getting bolder every day
Now I live outside the law
I don't even get the blues, not anymore
'Cos I've found the perfect place
We're all looking for

Ah but each time I try to fly
The voice in my head
Says get back to the drawing
Board and start again

And I need you, and I want you
Gotta have you, and I can't let go
No I can't let go

I can walk into a room and
I know just where to stand
I can talk to anyone like a confidential man
I got all the clever lines
And I know all the moves
I'm a perfect suit of clothes
In the perfect pair of shoes

Ah but each time I try to fly
The voice in my head
Says get down to the bottom boy
And start again

And I need you, and I want you
Gotta have you, 'cos I can't let go
No I can't let go

I was dyin' of thirst
And looking my worst when I came in here mmm
Now I stand alone in the the night
Wondering what is right why you came in here
I can't stay in here

I don't hang around no more
The places that we used to
I guess I've learned a little
And I know what I should do
I've become a little quieter
A little more contained
You could say I'm waiting –
Waiting for a change

Ah but each time I try to fly
The voice in my head
Says get back to the drawing board
And try again

And I need you, and I want you
Gotta have you, and I can't let go
No I can't let go
And I feel you, 'cos I failed you
And I lost you, but I can't let go
No I can't let go
And I love you, and I want you
More than ever
But I can't let go – no I can't let go
