How Lucky You Are — текст песни (David Bowie)

When you speak you speak to me

When you sleep you sleep by me

When you wake you wake with me

When you walk you follow two steps behind in life



Shadows stalking, ever grasping sinking for a need

It wasnt love it was the fix of never wanting me

Now Im gone, youre tossing and you turning in your sleep

Thats the name of the game, of the game, of the game



Cry, miss peculiar

Youll cry all the more, now Im gone

I was the monkey on your back

Take a look at how lucky you are



When you speak you speak to me

When you sleep you sleep by me

When you wake you wake with me

When you walk you follow two steps behind



Cry, cry, miss peculiar

Youll cry all the more, now Im gone

I was the monkey on your back

Take a look at how lucky you are



Some days are heaven, I will not deny

Probing the daylight cascading the skyline

Tripping and diving and losing it all

Back came the night time living for more



Cry, cry, miss peculiar

Youll cry all the more, now that Im gone

I was the devil monkey on your back

Take a look at how lucky you are



When you speak you speak to me

When you sleep you sleep by me

When you wake you wake with me

When you walk you follow two steps behind
