Letra de Closer to Heaven / Left to My Own Devices (Live at the O2 Arena, London - 21 December 2009)
Give me hope Give me all your love Tell me now You're coming home tonightHave some faith In the love we share Is it fate? Does darkness end in light?Never been closer to heaven Never been further away Never been closer to heaven Never been further awayI get out of bed at half past ten And phone up a friend, who's a party animal Turn on the news and drink some tea Maybe if you're with me, we'll do some shoppingOne day, I'll read or learn to drive a car If you pass the test, you can beat the rest But I don't like to compete or talk street, street, street I can pick up the best from the party animalI could leave you Say goodbye Or I could love you If I triedAnd I could And left to my own devices, I probably was Left to my own devices, I probably wasPick up a brochure about the sun Learn to ignore what the photographer saw I was always told that you should join a club Stick with the gang if you want to belong I was a lonely boy, no strength, no joy, in a world of my own at the back of the garden I didn't want to compete or play out on the street For in a secret life, I was a Roundhead generalI could leave you Say goodbye Or I could love you If I triedAnd I could And left to my own devices, I probably was Left to my own devices, I probably was Oh, I wouldChe Guevara to a disco beat, or Debussy (Heart-Beat) It's not a crime when you look the way you do The way I like to picture youWhen I get home, it's late at night I pour a drink and watch the fight Turn off the TV, look in a book Pick up the phone, fix some food Maybe I'll sit up all night and day Waiting for the minute I hear you sayI could leave you Say goodbye Or I could love you If I triedAnd I could And left to my own devices, I probably would Left to my own devices, I probably would Come on, baby Left to my own devices, I probably would
