[Verse 1]
I've got my toes round the edge of the high-wire
But I can't help from looking down
And yes, I know that I'm playing with fire
But I don't know how to put it out
[Pre-Chorus]
Though I try to hold it back
Remember all those things I have
I feel the hands around my throat
And I know they won't let go
Until I break, and throw my love away
[Chorus]
Oh, I get a wanderlust
Right now it's getting too much
Late in the night I lie awake (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Oh, I get a wanderlust
Can't tell me look but don't touch
Late in the night I slip away
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
I feel the dust itching under my heels
My shadow frozen where I stand
I'm just a ghost and I'm all pins and needles
Alice before Wonderland
[Pre-Chorus]
Though I try to concentrate
On all the reasons I should stay and carry on
But my hearts already gone
[Chorus]
Oh, I get a wanderlust
Right now it's getting too much
Late in the night I lie awake (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Oh, I get a wanderlust
Can't tell me look but don't touch
Late in the night I slip away
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Bridge]
In clubs ticking on
I can't wait another night
I've been standing so long
Counting up my alibis
And I'm running out of reasons
Not to leave this behind oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, I get a wanderlust
Can't tell me look but don't touch
I've got it all but it's not enough
I'm going out on a wanderlust
[Chorus]
Oh, I get a wanderlust
Right now it's getting too much
Late in the night I lie awake, oh oh oh
Oh, I get a wanderlust
Can't tell me look but don't touch
Late in the night I slip away
Oh,oh,oh,oh,oh, oh
Oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh
Oh,oh,oh,oh,oh, oh
Oh,oh,oh,oh,oh,oh
[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
