I Owe It All To You Lyrics - Tanita Tikaram

Tell Ma, she's a stonebreaker 

Tell her there are no takers 

For a heart like this will always be 

Chaste at first, then left for me 

And though your pallor shows instinct 

And all our lives are worth 

That stint you did with that man of mine 

But lady-luck, her needs divine 

'Cos I'm courted by the mourning sun y'know 

We shine all the picture palace shows 

They used to make you feel so real 

But now you go trickling 

'Til you steal a moment by yourself 

When the people don't come and need your help 

When the people don't come with pseudo sights 

To tell you how to live your life 

Now you can live your life with this life of mine 

'Cos I'm feeling guilty and I need some time 

To explain the things that I gotta do 

'Cos more or less 

I owe it all to you 

Tell all to the sweet keeper 

As you and you're much deeper 

In debt it's always nice to be 

With the closest like the family 

And when you hit on a great line y'know 

And when you've opened up your soul 

But every girl who's counting the day 

Isn't cold - but she just needs to say 

'Cos I'm courted by the mourning su y'know 

We shine all the picture palace shows 

they used to make you feel so real 

But now you go trickling 

'Til you steal a moment by yourself 

When the people don't come and need your help 

When the people don't come with pseudo sights 

To tell you how to live your life 

Now you can live your life with this life of mine 

'Cos I'm feeling guilty and I need some time 

To explain the things that I gotta do 

'Cos more or less 

I owe it all to you
