Flesh Wound

Foreigner

It's four o' clock in the mornin'
And the daylight's creepin' in
And I'm lyin' awake in bedAnd outside my window
The rain's just pourin' down
And there's a pain inside my head, oh yeahI looked hard into the mirror
Took some water in my hands
And threw it on my faceBut your memory won't fade away
I see you everywhere
Around this empty spaceThis night's too long, fadin' fast
I tell myself, this pain won't lastIt's just a flesh wound
Missin' my heart but it still cuts deep
Nothin' but a flesh wound, yeah
It tore me apart and I still can't sleepYou know you really did it well
Now I'm lyin' on a bed of nails
But it's nothin' but a flesh woundBetter pull myself together
Gotta hold my head up high
That's what I've got to doNo damage done
But deep inside my heart
Who am I tryin' to foolIt's over now, it's all in the past
I tell myself, this pain won't lastIt's just a flesh wound
Missin, my heart but it still cuts deep
Nothin' but a flesh wound, oh
It tore me apart and I still can't sleep, no, noI've got no choice, I must be strong
Can't lie here thinkin' about it all night long
It's nothin' but a flesh woundIt's just a flesh wound
Missin' my heart but it still cuts deep
Nothin' but a flesh wound, oh
And it tore me apart but I still can't sleepYou know you really did it well
Now I'm lyin' on a bed of nailsIt's just a flesh wound, oh
I got to be strong
It's just a flesh wound, babe
It tore me apart oh, at last
It's a flesh wound
Nothing but a flesh wound, oh
It cuts me deep, yeah
