because of you

Singer: chris rea

i used to hang my head down low

never knowing which way i was going

my life was getting close to the edge

and i knew that it was showing

because of you

i can stand and hold my head up high

because of you

i feel free and yet i don't know why

each morning is a spring time song

with the sun up in the sky

the sadness that is on your face

helped me to realise

i owe each day i have to you

and i'll pay you back some day

you're reading me like a book

but i really would like to say

because of you

i can stand and hold my head up high

because of you

i feel free and yet i don't know why

yes i do

it's you

and i'll pay you back some day

because of you

i have finally found my way
