Taking Back My Time - Midge Ure, Stephen Emmer

And I will walk away

leave the weight you laid on me for so long

and give it back where it belongs

I wish you well a thousand times to leave it all behind

I’m taking back my time

Time to take a little time

to see what lies ahead for us,

but nothing comes to mind

Only writings on the wall of empty words and hollow sounds

And empty says it all

And I will walk away

leave the weight you laid on me for so long

and give it back where it belongs

I wish you well a thousand times to leave it all behind

I’m taking back my time

Helpless and stranded how you want me to stay

It’s not enough to be your plaything

See your plaything walking away

And I will walk away and

leave the weight you laid on me for so long

take it back where it belongs

I wish you well a thousand times

and leave it all behind

I’m taking back my time

I hear the words of songs that made us cry

Taking back my time
