My Uptight Life

Teenage Fanclub

Composed by: Raymond McGinley
The morning sun opens up my eyes 
What I see is the same world I know you're seeing 
My dreams are real until I realise 
Realising's a slow fade from thought to being 
The waking world is full of cynics' sighs 
Cynicism's a box I don't want to be in 
I'll stay in bed until I stabilize 

I try to write this song 
To move my life along 
I know what I dream of 
I'll save my life for love 

Hidden meanings don't need to hide 
When I hide from the world you're the one who'll find me 
They don't need screening from the world outside 
If the truth's overdue I know you'll remind me 
If the truth police are sniffing out a lie 
I've done nothing in life I can't put behind me 
I'll use my life as an alibi 

Meaning is something I got from you 
Whenever I lost the plot you knew 
What is it I haven't got 
When I've got you 

Meaning is something I got from you 
Whenever I lost the plot you knew 
What is it I haven't got 
When I've got you 

All my life I felt so uptight 
Now it's all right.
