my feet don't touch the ground

in the year 2000, i wrote this song about being in love, even though i had never been in love at the time (and in fact it was only during 2009 that i finally fell in love). the song is about a person who goes un-noticed because of love. nothing else is important in life any more because that person has love. hence the lines where they dont need an umbrella in the rain and being camouflage in every background. this is one of my personal favourites.

written - 2000

subject - being in love

lyrics -

drugs are not on my diet
without sleep i'm dayless
defeat is closer than victory
i pretend to enjoy your company

but i'm camouflage in every background
when i stop loving you my feet don't touch the ground
du da du da du
oooh du da du da du

my calendar is empty
same goes for my diary
i press balance enquiry
the cash machine ignores me

at posh awards i'm teetotal
the end is never close
my feet don't touch the ground
du da du da du
oooh du da du da du

in desert suns i've no shadow
in rain - no umbrella
in snow - no duffelcoat
my feet don't touch the ground


but i'm camouflage in every background
when i stop loving you my feet don't touch the ground
du da du da du
oooh du da du da du
