Last Cheap Shot at the Dream Songtext
von Del Amitri

I can′t look into the future, but I can't cheat the past
I will wipe away my memory, I will find freedom at last
I will walk away from everything that I used to want so bad
I can′t look into the future, but the future is the only thing I have
The only thing I have

I am standing on the pavement, I am staring at a sign
A cheaper flight to paradise I am told I'll never find
There are cameras on the rooftops, there are crazies on the green
I will jump a plane to any place
Far enough away to get me out of who I've been
Get me out of who I′ve been


I have shaken, never bitten, every hand that ever hit me
Time has taken what it wanted, now I′m gonna get my victory
With my last cheap shot at the dream (dream)

I can't look into the future, but I can′t cheat the past
I will wipe away my memory
I will find freedom at last (find freedom at last)

I can't look into the future, but I know I don′t wanna see
Another day in Hell with all the mediocrities
I will walk away from everything that the world wants me to do
I can't look into the future, but the future′s where I'm walking to
I'm walking to
I′m walking to
