Lyrics Deacon Blue – Delivery Man
Text:
I give you everything I can
But I don’t get anything back from you
There’s something in the way you sing
The words but somehow it lacks the bitter truth
But I’ve been in these songs too long
I know you love them more than I ever could
But that’s cause you never stood where I stood
In amongst the heartache
Down around the sorrow saying I love you
Saying it right out loud..
Singing there or being here…
Two different things we need to realise but I.
I»m the delivery man
Taking round things I don’t own
To folks who can afford them
Cause I can’t
I’m just the delivery man
I can’t tell you what to think or do
I’m just a singer of songs
In the middle of it all, when it all comes down
I can’t tell right from wrong
In amongst the heartache
Down around the sorrow
Saying I love you, saying it right out loud…
Singing there or being here
Two different things we need to realise but I…
I’m the delivery man
Taking round things I don’t own
To folks who can afford them
I’m going round the town
Can’t take it back
Can only give it out
Cause I know what I’m not and what I am
I’m just the delivery man
I’m going round the town
Can’t take it back
Can only give it out
Cause I know what I’m not and what I am
I’m just the delivery man
l’m going round the town
Can’t take it back
Can only give it out
Cause I know what I’m not and what I am
I’m just the delivery man
