Don't Turn Your Back On Me - Tanita Tikaram

I get blinded

By every light

Every new sensation

Rushing over me

Please don’t turn your back on me

Please don’t turn your back on me

I get lonesome

In a crowd

I am tiresome

When I’m trying to shout out loud

I am hungry

For the touch of things

And new beginnings

And every awakening

Oh, not now

Don’t turn your back on me

For every foolishness

And everything I try to be

In the morning

When you’re filled with dreams

And your heart is singing

The promise of everything

You are lifted

By every sight

Every inspiration

That’s been calling you

Please don’t turn your back on me

Please don’t turn your back on me
