One Left Standing Lyrics - Mike & The Mechanics

You've got to hold on tonight 

Do you think that it's easy trying to take me for a ride? 

Signs... time that you recognised them 

Doesn't work anymore, it's gone and you can't make it right 

Please just read my lips, get the message now baby 

I been tangled enough, don't get me caught up again 

Time I've lost count of the times I've been had do you blame me 

But enough of this madness, no more to say it's been said 

All this time I've been holding it together 

If you walked a mile in my shoes you'd know what 

I'd been going through 

How many times can we go back? 

Make the same mistakes, it's written all over your face

You and I were a river flowing 

Now the tide has turned and all of my tears have run dry 

How come I am the one left standing? 

Now I'm drowning inside 

All of my tears have run dry 

Back right where I started again 

But it's hard to forget 

Everything's so different then 

I would have moved mountains 

If you'd asked me to 

That's a lifetime ago 

You've got to face up to the truth 

Forgetting all of our mistakes 

I just keep on falling right back in again

You and I were a river flowing 

Now the tide has turned 

And all of my tears have run dry 

How come I am the one left standing? 

Now I'm drowning inside 

All of my tears have run dry 

Turned my back and I don't regret it 

One more time would be hell if I let it 

Take my word for it, don't forget it 

Check my eyes cause my tears have run dry 

You and I were a river flowing 

Now the tide has turned 

And all of me tears have run dry 

How come I am the one left standing? 

Now I'm drowning inside 

All of my tears have run dry
