Almost Awol

I sat in the back of your black cab
And thought about going AWOL from one of my own shows
I had had some bad news that day
I knew my bestfriend wasn't going to make it
She wasn't going to make it

I sat in the back of your black cab and thought about going AWOL
from one of my own shows, from one of my own shows
I almost said hey driver is there anywhere you would like to go to?
Then drive on, then drive on

Cos f#ck it I'm not making any money today
Cos my heart's not in it
My heart is terminally ill
F#ck it I'm not making any money today
F#ck it I don't wanna pretend
I don't want walk onstage and pretend I'm okay

I'm not making any money today
I'm not making any money today
Not making any money today
I'm not making any money today
I was almost AWOL with you
I was almost AWOL with you
I was almost AWOL with you
I was almost AWOL with you but only if you wanted to

Oh f#ck it I'm not making any money today and who wants to rich anyway?
Oh f#ck it I'm not making any money today and who wants to rich anyway?
Oh f#ck it I'm not making any money today but I don't want to be rich so that's okay

Oh I recognised your distinct tattoo
Please don't think I didn't know it was you cos I did
I thought I had lost my mind
Thought I had hallucinated you cos I wanted to see you
Cos you were the one thing that I wanted to see in that exact moment in time and I didn't think I was that lucky
You were the one thing that I wanted to see in that exact moment in time
You were the one thing I needed

Almost AWOL with you
I was almost AWOL with you
Oh I was almost AWOL with you
I was almost AWOL with you but only if you wanted to
Almost AWOL with you
I would have ran away right there and then with you
Almost AWOL
