One Track Mind Lyrics

Your greatest strength was your endurance

You had the will to see it through

Your one track mind has reached the station

Two fingers to the doubts in you

You took rejection as a reason

Your motivation fuelled by spite

The river flowed throughout the heatwave

Until the autumn leaves did fall

And paradise was never easy

Sometimes I don't know where to turn

And all the while you had it easy

Your pride would feed my jealousy

The hero sits quiet in the corner

Modest looks belie his past

The charlatan tells tales from his bar stool

He knows nobody cares but never asks

An old man sits upon the bar stool

Each line on his face could tell a tale

Staring straight at whisky bottles

No one hears his stories now

No one hears his stories now

And paradise was never easy

Sometimes I don't know where to turn

And all the while you had it easy

Your pride would feed my jealousy

Your pride would feed my jealousy
