Back Against The Wall Lyrics by Sponge

The Man

0

This drunken heart of mine knows the taste of a wine
That's bitter sweet that long ago was taken from the vine

This beggar's heart of mine, it ain't got any pride
So it lays me down on my knees to pray
One day it will guide my way
A fool will pay the price to play, I know

Now I'm back against the wall
So now I'll sit and drink
Maybe tomorrow
I will know my fate
For now I'll sit and wait
Maybe tomorrow

This forgotten heart of mine blocks out all the stars that shine
That heaven sent to the hell bent could not make me feel high

This lover's heart of mine, music of a divine
Caress on distant shores that I long to
Go and find someday if my heart guides my way
A fool will pay the price to play, I know

Now I'm back against the wall
So now I'll sit and drink
Maybe tomorrow
I will know my fate
For now I'll sit and wait
Maybe tomorrow

That I'm back against the wall
So now I'll sit and drink
Uh, maybe tomorrow
I will know my fate
For now I'll sit and wait
Maybe tomorrow (x4)
