Alexis Strum - The Starting Line

I watch the light from your cigarette burn out into white


I’m running out of time,


Thinking you once said


Baby, we’re in the army now, an army made of two just me and you…


But you’re all I got and I just won’t give that up


Yeah you’re all I got


Ain’t that worth a shot?


It’s never easy getting down to it,


Never easy getting round to it


When you’re ready give the sign


I’ll be there at the starting line.


It’s never easy getting down to it,


Never easy getting round to it


When you’re ready give the sign


I’ll be there at the starting line


No-one knows what ‘forever’ means, they say it anyway


To make you stay.


Well you should know, I cross my heart and I close my eyes


Promises are lies,


We break them every time.


But you’re all I got and I just won’t give that up


Yeah you’re all I got


Ain’t that worth a shot?


It’s never easy getting down to it,


Never easy getting round to it


When you’re ready give the sign


I’ll be there at the starting line


It’s never easy getting down to it,


Never easy getting round to it


When you’re ready give the sign


I’ll be there at the starting line
