Just because you're here tonight
Doesn't mean I'm going to lose the fight
Against myself, oh
Just because I'm feeling low
Doesn't mean I'm going to fall
Into your arms, oh
I'm just a work in progress, baby
I'm just a work in progress
I'm just a work in progress, baby
I'm just a work in progress
I've not got anything to say
That might impress you today
You'll have to wait and find out for yourself
I want my energy to stay with me
And not be scattered in the crowd
Am I allowed to let the voices drift away
I'm just a work in progress, baby
I'm just a work in progress
I'm just a work in progress, baby
I'm just a work in progress
Did you see the stars shooting high
In the desert of the sky
In the night time with bites
From the bugs in the air
Did you stare when you cared
Or at least pretended to care
About the dread in my heart
That was fighting its way
Past your hair, past your eyes
Past the things you would say
Without batting an eye
When I had lost my way
In the stillness of streets
There will be no relief
Was it cold?
Was it cold on your long-winded walk home?
I'm just a work in progress, baby
I'm just a work in progress
I'm just a work in progress, baby
I'm just a work in progress
I can pick myself back up, baby
I can pick myself back up, yeah
