I'm a local man
Can you tell me how I can
Can I touch you please
I have been blessed

But I've been told to rest
I'll call if you let me
If I have to go, I'm not taking you along
I'm riding out the waves and testing out the hurdles

So long my love
This is goodbye, so long
This is good-bye
I can't decide if she really loves me

My forehead met the pavement
But I've started to come round
I've been cut, spat out and hollowed
This time I'll stay down
