Hanging By A Thread - Mike and The Mechanics

[Ell.a]

And through the grief and pain, I'm half insaneI give an inch you take a mileYou throw away the key, ignore my pleaYou cut me down without a trial(You keep me hanging by) hanging by a thread(You keep me hanging by) leaving me for dead(You keep me hanging by) I heard it when you said,(You keep me hanging by) "Keep him hanging by a thread"You throw a length of rope, I grab, you hope,It's just enough to hang myselfI make a fatal slip, I lose my gripThere's no-one left to call for help(You keep me hanging by) hanging by a thread(You keep me hanging by) leaving me for dead(You keep me hanging by) I'm not finished yet(You keep me hanging by) I'm still hanging by a threadI hear a final scream, another dreamI hear it then I start to go (hang him by a thread)I recognise the pain, a time to playThen stuck me to the afterglow (hang him by a thread)Then I wake up wet, soaked in sweatTell you all you want to know (hang him by a thread)Lyrics by Mike Rutherford---> Homepage
