Talisman - Paul Weller

You got your magic touch

And you know so much

It must be easy for you

To turn me into gold

You got a pretty strong hand

Backed up with your talisman

That hangs from your neck

You mind that, you don’t show

You got the keys to the city

But you’ll find no place to stay

'Cause for all your talk

You still got nothing to say

And your talisman

Like the wind blows sand

Must fly away

Here’s a turn to move

And half the world will give you too

Oh, caught up in your gravity issues

Just to leave us with

Ridin' to the fields we shared

Ah, takin' us closer, closer

To our groove

As you look to the skies

With empty eyes and say

I’ve got the gift of the world

But I still don’t understand

And my talisman

Like the wind blows sand

Must fly away

As you look to the skies

With empty eyes and say

I’ve got the gift of the world

And I still don’t understand

He’s got the light of the world

But still can’t see his way

As he’s ready to fight

But there’s nothing left to slay

And your talisman

Like the wind blows sand

Must fly away
