Mate Lyrics by Airways

Starting to Spin

2017

[Verse 1]
Mate
I'm stuck outside
Looks like the sun is rising soon
And the night didn't go like I said it would
Mate
I can see your light
And I know that you're up entertaining
This isn't the neighbours complaining
The buses have stopped and it's raining

[Pre-Chorus]
I just need to sleep
To forget about her
Forget what I said
Please throw down your keys
And I won't interfere
Get straight into bed

[Chorus]
I'm out here in the rain
And life is throwing stones at me
It's going down the drain
It's all become too much for me
Oh can you help me mate?
Oh can you help me mate?

[Verse 2]
Mate
I know you're home
And I know that you're there with somebody
If I'm talking too much then just stop me
I'll get out of your way in a hurry

[Pre-Chorus]
I just so feel so tired
Can't forget about her
Can't forget

[Chorus]
I'm out here in the rain
And life is throwing stones at me
It's going down the drain
It's all become too much for me
Oh can you help me mate?
It's all become too much
Oh can you help me mate?

[Bridge]
It's really getting late
I'm out here in a state
Oh I thought you were my mate

[Outro]
I'm out here in the rain
And life is throwing stones at me
It's going down the drain
It's all become too much for me
Oh can you help me mate?
I'm out here in the rain
And life is throwing stones at me
It's going down the drain
It's all become too much for me
Oh can you help me mate?
I'm out here in the rain
And life is throwing stones at me
It's going down the drain
It's all become too much for me
Oh can you help me mate?
