David Bowie - How Lucky You Are lyrics

When you speak you speak to me When you sleep you sleep by me When you wake you wake with me When you walk you follow two steps behind in life Shadows stalking, ever grasping sinking for a need It wasn't love it was the fix of never wanting me Now i'm gone, you're tossing and you turning in your sleep That's the name of the game, of the game, of the game Cry, miss peculiar You'll cry all the more, now i'm gone I was the monkey on your back Take a look at how lucky you are When you speak you speak to me When you sleep you sleep by me When you wake you wake with me When you walk you follow two steps behind Cry, cry, miss peculiar You'll cry all the more, now i'm gone I was the monkey on your back Take a look at how lucky you are Some days are heaven, i will not deny Probing the daylight cascading the skyline Tripping and diving and losing it all Back came the night time living for more Cry, cry, miss peculiar You'll cry all the more, now that i'm gone I was the devil monkey on your back Take a look at how lucky you are When you speak you speak to me When you sleep you sleep by me When you wake you wake with me When you walk you follow two steps behind La la la la la
