I'm a lover and a whore
And I've been rich and I've been poor
It's not over now
Though the fortunes that we keep
Create bonds around our feet
It's not over now
Call me an ambulance, I'm fading away
I'm here overwhelmed, I'm here overwhelmed
Lost in the shuffle, I'll fall to the back
I'm here overwhelmed, I'm here overwhelmed
Now I've walked down these streets
Had my head down in defeat
It's not over now
Taken for granted and run foul
Just to appreciate you now
My world's and island just waiting to be found
Call me an ambulance, I'm fading away
I'm here overwhelmed, I'm here overwhelmed
Lost in the shuffle, I'll fall to the back
I'm here overwhelmed, I'm here overwhelmed
Can I let you in? (Can I let you in?)
And how do I begin? (How do I begin?)
Can I let you in? (Can I let you in?)
And how do I begin? (How do I begin?)
You can hide behind these walls
But darlin' every city falls
And it comes crumbling down
And while her sister lies with me
Fortune smiles through broken teeth
Just waitin' for you to lay her down
Call me an ambulance, I'm fading away
I'm here overwhelmed, I'm here overwhelmed
Lost in the shuffle, I'll fall
Forever ever stumbling down this trail
