M People - Last night 10,000 Lyrics

Written by - Mike Pickering, Paul Heard, Heather Small

Don't let the rain wash my heart
I've love in here but where do I start.
No more life to my shoes.
Don't look my way you know I'm bad news.
Feel the tears on my cheek.
Abuse me now `cause I've got to eat.
Where was last night I forget.
This ain't no big issue just life and death.

Last night 10,000
out in the rain
bellowing silence
maybe it's now or never again.

Eyes are down looking in
I'm sorry but I'm not on your screen.
I hold a cup in my hand
to help me reach my own promised land.
Crown of thorns on my head
wrapped up in my own cardboard bed.
I got youth by my side
a victim of your crime nothing to hide.

Last night 10,000
out in the rain
bellowing silence
maybe it's now or never again.

I'll do anything to forget
after all what is there left.
But in the black of night
frosty stars and vice.
I'm too old to learn
too young to burn
And as you walk by with ghosts in your eyes
the World still turns.
