"The Fortress" lyrics

Simon Fowler & Oscar Harrison Lyrics

"The Fortress"

This fortress that I live in
I have lived in comfortably
But I've got to the point where I'm living
But not living for me

No, I know when I walk down
Would I live here or leave town
I don't

I just need my heart, I know
I just need the country of mine
And I need time to bow down
To what I decide
And I need a time to play
And I need a time to rest
And I need someone to play hard with
I need someone for regrets
Not very, very strange
Not very, very strange
And not here
