if it doesn't come naturally, leave it

Singer: al stewart

nothing that's forced can ever be right

if it doesn't come naturally

leave it

that's what she said as she turned out the light

and we bent our backs as slaves of the night

then she lowered her guard and showed me the scars

she got from trying to fight

saying oh

you'd better believe it. well i'm up to my neck in the crumbling wreckage

of all that i wanted from life

when i looked for respect all i got was neglect

though i swallowed the line as a sign of the times

but dealing a jack from the back of the pack

they said-you lose again"
