Del Amitri Last Cheap Shot At The Dream Lyrics

Last Cheap Shot At The Dream Lyrics

I can't look into the future, but I can't cheat the past 

I will wipe away my memory, I will find freedom at last 

I will walk away from everything that I used to want so bad 

I can't look into the future, but the future is the only thing I have 

The only thing I have 



I am standing on the pavement, I am staring at a sign 

A cheaper flight to paradise I am told I'll never find 

There are cameras on the rooftops, there are crazies on the green 

I will jump a plane to any place far enough away to get me out of who I've been


Get me out of who I've been 



I have shaken, never bitten, every hand that ever hit me 

Time has taken what it wanted, now I'm gonna get my victory 

With my last cheap shot at the dream 



I can't look into the future, but I can't cheat the past 

I will wipe away my memory, I will find freedom at last 



I can't look into the future, but I know I don't wanna see 

Another day in Hell with all the mediocrities 

I will walk away from everything that the world wants me to do 

I can't look into the future, but the future's where I'm walking to 

I'm walking to
