You Dropped Your Soul - Dot Allison

This surrender gave me damage

You’re the needle i have done

I won’t play dice with a cheat

Although it’s hunger brought me here

No-one said that life would be easy

That fate would leave us to walk on water

Don’t you realise that it’s what you make it

And you’re choosing to drown

You’ve dropped your soul from your pocket

Somewhere on the way

And the saddest thing of all is

You don’t know that it’s gone

The voice in my eyes is fading fast

With only these broken flowers

Hanging on the bough

No-one said that life would be easy

That fate would leave us to walk on water

Don’t you realise that it’s what you make it

And you’re choosing to drown

You’ve dropped your soul from your pocket

Somewhere on the way

And the saddest thing of all is

You don’t know that it’s gone

Now you’re falling out of the sky

Trying to tear me down with you

Pulling the fine points of my star

But it’s as though they are made of butter

'Cause you just slid to leave me standing tall

You’ve dropped your soul from your pocket

Somewhere on the way

And the saddest thing of all is

You don’t know that it’s gone
