Hanging Up

Hanging up

For all the times I never loved enough

Lining up

Lining up to take the rope for us

You tied me to an aeroplane

That pulled me through the sky

And there’s something ’bout the fall

That makes me sure I won’t survive

But it’s hard to free the noose

That you wrapped round my mind

Won’t you back it up?

With that kind of curse you can’t hang it up

And words don’t mean nothing

I’d give it up

But love’s never lost ‘till you’ve had enough

And I’ve got to get away because

I’m still hanging on to every word you say

Hanging up

For all the times I never gave a fuck

But you won’t let me down

I’m spinning round above the ground

And I’m thunderstruck

I’m feeling like a champion

But my face is turning red

As I try to call it quits

And get to grips

And catch my breath

But it’s hard to free the noose

That you wrapped round my neck

Won’t you back it up?

With that kind of curse you can’t hang it up

And words don’t mean nothing

I’d give it up

But love’s never lost ‘till you’ve had enough

And I’ve got to get away because

I’m still hanging on to every word you say

Won’t you back it up?

With that kind of curse you can’t hang it up

And words don’t mean nothing

I’d give it up

But love’s never lost ‘till you’ve had enough

And I’ve got to get away because

I’m still hanging on to every word you say
