Another Way lyrics

(G. Brooker I. Sutherland)

When it`s time for me to go
and I hear that whistle blow
I`ll be waiting in line day or night
Take my hand and lead me down
Lay my burden on the ground
Break these chains and let me stand in the light
Now I know what the game`s all about
If that`s the way you want to play - count me out

Had enough of alibis, empty promises and lies
Trying to find a better life on my own
There`s no easy way I know - now the strains begin to show
Still I`m looking for a light to lead me home
Though my heart`s still full of doubt -
There`s no way I`m gonna play - so count me out

I`ve been too long here breaking my back
Doing my best to get through
I never thought I could feel this way
But I need to find something new
It`s not the money and it`s not the gold
- I just want some peace of mind
My life is racing like a runaway train
Getting faster all the time...

Underneath a golden sky
Far away I`m gonna fly
To a place I know is there in my mind
Like a sailor home to die
With no journey left to try
Throw my spirit in the tide and lead me blind
Now I know what this game`s all about
If that`s the way you wanna play
Then count me out
