John Waite - Encircled

In these days of wild roses
I held a compass in my hand
I had three wishes for a future
That I won`t need to understand
And I`ve got holly green on blood red
Manhattan Christmas on my arm
My soul ain`t worth saving
Feels like I`ve lost my lucky charm
And I`ve been living in the gutter
I`ve been loaded like a gun
I`ve been sliding down the mountain
And it feels like kingdom come
And I`m always fighting windmills
Have to take it as it comes
See I`m
I`m encircled
I am
If you want me tell me
Cause I can`t play this game much longer
Feels a lot like oblivion
This feeling just keeps getting stronger
And I`ve been living in the gutter
Without American Express
Heroes changing horses midstream
I`m detached
I`m second-guessed
Won`t you please come back and get me
My whole world is in a mess
See I`m
I`m encircled
This time I am
I`m encircled
In these days of wild rosesI`m encircled
Yeah
And I`ve been living in the gutter
I`ve been loaded like a gun
I`ve been sliding down the mountain
And it feels like kingdom come
And I`m always fighting windmills
Have to take it as it comes
See I`m encircled
This time I am
I`m encircled
I am
In these days of wild roses
