Del Amitri - Just Getting By Lyrics
Look at me, I'm the one who got away, the one who could've shoneI tried to do my best, but I guess your best don't last for longLook at me, standing with my tattered pride of toothless little lionsWe try to make a difference, do something no one else had triedBut if you see me walking and you're wondering whyWell it's just the business of lifeIf you're not getting lucky, you're just getting byLook at me, is it written on my face, the luxuries I've known?Am I a foreign presence, someplace that used to be my home?So if you see me walking, just a regular guyWell it's just the business of lifeIf you're not getting lucky, you're just getting byAnd in that weightlessness that comes with good luckThe one thing you don't expect is feeling the dropLook at me, I'm the one who got away, and then came crawling backI try to do my best, but I guess I never had the knackSo if you see me walking, and you're wondering whyWell it's just the business of lifeIf you're not getting lucky, you're just getting by
