Beyond You - Words by Steve Hogarth
If you were a baby I would take you and run
I could hide you in the folds of my heart
There's a truth in the madness that I can't get beyond
And a fever that won't leave me alone
I don't want my heart
Don't want my head
Don't want my friends
Don't want my bed
I can't live with myself
I can't live with myself
Can't take no help
I try to want to
But I can't get beyond you
I will stare from the window
At the shapes in the rain
As the space between us drives me insane
I can't live with myself
I can't live with myself
Can't take no help
Don't want no one else
If I was a child
I would refuse to leave
I would sit down on the street
Kick my legs and scream
I'm not much of a man
But I know how I am
I know this won't fade away
I will pretend and be strong
But I wonder where I belong
And the feeling comes in waves
A hole in my body, aching
Like a heart dying
A soul crying
Exhausted and insecure
Took all you have and I still want more
So I reach out to hold you
But all I do is hurt you
Hurt you
I can't live with myself
I can't live with myself
Can't take no help
I try to want to
But I can't get beyond you
If I was a child I would take you and run
And I say I don't know... But I know
And I say I'll go
You just spent the whole day
Driving away
If you were a baby I would take you and run
I could hide you in the folds of my heart
There's a truth in the madness that I can't get beyond
And a fever that won't leave me alone
I don't want my heart
Don't want my head
Don't want my friends
Don't want my bed
I can't live with myself
I can't live with myself
Can't take no help
I try to want to
But I can't get beyond you
I will stare from the window
At the shapes in the rain
As the space between us drives me insane
I can't live with myself
I can't live with myself
Can't take no help
Don't want no one else
If I was a child
I would refuse to leave
I would sit down on the street
Kick my legs and scream
I'm not much of a man
But I know how I am
I know this won't fade away
I will pretend and be strong
But I wonder where I belong
And the feeling comes in waves
A hole in my body, aching
Like a heart dying
A soul crying
Exhausted and insecure
Took all you have and I still want more
So I reach out to hold you
But all I do is hurt you
Hurt you
I can't live with myself
I can't live with myself
Can't take no help
I try to want to
But I can't get beyond you
If I was a child I would take you and run
And I say I don't know... But I know
And I say I'll go
You just spent the whole day
Driving away
Another fabulous song from Kirsty McColl but no idea if she wrote it - I like to think she did...
Some boys with warm beds and cold, cold hearts
Can make you feel nothing at all,
They'll never remember and they'll never mind
If you're counting the cracks on the wall
They're quick and they're greedy
They never feel guilty
They don't know the meaning of hurt
The boots just go back on
The socks that hasd stayed on
The next time they see you they treat you like dirt
The next time they treat you like dirt
So don't come the cowboy with me sunny Jim
I know lots of those and you're not one of them
There's a light in your eyes tells me somebody's in and, you won't come the cowboy with me...
