Paolo Nutini - Looking For Something lyrics

Another day is washed away And all alibis are out And the hand that used to heal me only cursed me now. The echoes of a woman so kind Rain like waterfalls and ice-cream on my worried mind. I lay there in the puddle of myself Fishing from a brand new wish from that bucket down the well. And in her colors I find my faith, Cause I remember every word that lady used to say. She said that hearts can't break themselves Looking for something, leaving with nothing But souls can't save themselves Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine! Be a long home without you It's just a long way home without you Yeah, yeah! That's my mother, like no other, Made me human, made me brother And it's swelling with blister for my sake and my sisters The guardian of my karma, keep my feet on terrain firmer And then release me like a scient to the sky! She said that hearts can't break themselves Looking for something, leaving with nothing But souls can't save themselves Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine! It's just a long way home Sister, you have some hungry eyes And by back you're hypnotized Smiling faces in disguise By back you're hypnotized. Keep going against the grain And soon that's all, soon that's all you'll know And soon that's all you'll know And let's get this straight Sometimes you'll rise, and there's time you'll fall After all, you're just blood and bones And you don't owe no one, oh No, you don't owe no one So don't live like one price is right, Cause there is some things in your life that you can't fight! She said that hearts can't break themselves Looking for something, wind up with nothing But souls can't save themselves Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine! She said that hearts can't break themselves Looking for something, leaving with nothing But souls can't save themselves Learning to fly, learning to fly She said that souls can't save themselves Learning to fly, learning to fly Oh souls can't save themselves Learning to fly, learning to fly Oh momma, how I love you! Learning to fly, learning to fly No momma, how I love you Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine! We're a long way home without you
