I was half in mind - I was half in need, And as the rain came down - I dropped to my knees and prayed I said "oh Heavenly thing - please cleanse my soul, I've seen all on offer and I'm not impressed at all". I was halfway home - I was half insane, And every shop window I looked in just looked the same I said send me a sign to save my life 'Cause at this moment in time there is nothing certain in these day's of mine Y'see it's a frightening thing when it dawns upon you That I know as much as the day I was born And though I wasn't asked (I might as well stay) And promise myself each and every day - that - When you're knocked on your back - an' your life's a flop and when you're down on the bottom there's nothing else but to shout to the top - shout!
