A Peak You Reach

Badly Drawn Boy

No sign of life

Pulsing through these aging veins

"I bet it's your age", that's easier for you to say

Forcing answers into questions

And worrying that you might stop breathing



On and on we sift through alphabets of life

That never get us anywhere, anyway

I'd like you to feel we have the best intentions

I want you to know that I know it's not easy

I want you to know that I know it's not easy

Easy, easy



-- CHORUS --

Then there's a peak you reach

Out to somebody that's never even there

Somebody that you may hope that they might care

For nearby health, or distant welfare

I'm pleased to hear that you're warm, 'cause I'm freezing

Yeah, I'm freezing

Co-old



I don't want to be alone, is that out of the question

I'd like to have you home, is that too obvious

Quit being pushed around, stand on my feet

And kick all these losers out of my street



I've been losing confidence in the heat

Just when I'm feeling the strength, I get weak

I've been losing confidence in the heat

Just when I'm feeling the strength, I get weak



Duba-da-duba-da-do

Duba-da-duba-da-do

Duba-da-duba-da-do

Duba-da-duba-da-do

Duba-da-duba-da-do

Duba-da-duba-da-do

Duba-da-duba-da-do



Then there's a peak you reach

Out to somebody, a peak you reach

That's never even there, a peak you reach

I'd like you to feel we've reached our peak

Peak you reach
