stand up and give me a reason

John Miles

You can have the world
If the world is what you need.
Take me round in circles.
I ll follow where you lead.
Go anywhere
If it s where you wanna go.
It used to be for something
But lately I don t know.

Take me far away ,
All the people say.
You re the price I pay,
Blame me.
Leave you far behind,
Search until I find.
I could lose my mind,
Shame me,
Tame me.

I ll play the game,
No matter what they say.
Holding on to pieces,
I ll follow anyway
Be anyone.
If it s who you wanna be
Someday soon my day will come
And you can set me free.

Stand up and give me a reason,
I can t go on livin a lie.
You re hiding behind so many faces.
It s more than I need to get by.
Stand up and give me a reason.
You don t even ask me to stay.
You think I ll be back here tomorrow,
But you ve seen me for the last time today.
