Looking Over My Shoulder Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If I'm calling you out of the blue
It's because it's never-ending
And if I'm dragging out pictures of you
It's because I'm only pretending
[Chorus]
And if I'm looking over my shoulder
It's just because I hope you'll be there
And if I'm looking older and older
It's 'cause I know I haven't a prayer
[Verse 2]
When I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve
It wears out after a fashion
Oh and I'm finding it hard to believe
Your whole-hearted lack of compassion
[Chorus]
And if I'm looking over my shoulder
It's just because I hope you'll be there
And if I'm looking older and older
It's 'cause I know I haven't a prayer
[Instrumental Break]
If I'm calling you out of the blue
It's because it's never-ending
And if I'm dragging out pictures of you
It's because I'm only pretending
[Chorus]
And if I'm looking over my shoulder
It's just because I hope you'll be there
And if I'm looking older and older
It's 'cause I know I haven't a prayer
[Verse 2]
When I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve
It wears out after a fashion
Oh and I'm finding it hard to believe
Your whole-hearted lack of compassion
[Chorus]
And if I'm looking over my shoulder
It's just because I hope you'll be there
And if I'm looking older and older
It's 'cause I know I haven't a prayer
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
And if I'm looking over my shoulder
It's just because I hope you'll be there
And if I'm looking older and older
It's 'cause I know I haven't a prayer
[Outro]
And if I'm looking over my shoulder
It's just because I hope you'll be there
And if I'm looking older and older
It's 'cause I know I haven't a prayer
And if I'm looking over my shoulder
It's just because I hope you'll be there
And if I'm looking older and older
It's 'cause I know I haven't a prayer
[Outro]
And if I'm looking over my shoulder
It's just because I hope you'll be there
And if I'm looking older and older
It's 'cause I know I haven't a prayer
