Kirsty Hawkshaw - Mercury Lyrics

Do I fail you
Do you scare yourself
I know you're not a saint yet
Neither am I
I guess that time put out the flame
Now I don't ever know
The meaning of my name
How can it be over
When it hadn't begun
How can it be over
It hasn't begun
You're free to go now
Be alone in the flesh
And I won't think of you
I'll try to see myself
Should I stare into the lake
Free like mercury
The past we must forsake
How can it be over
When it hadn't begun
How can it be over
It hasn't begun
I write this song for you
As a contract for the love
And what was true or not
Won't compare to the above
I'll try and hold my head
Should I fall into the sea
Free like mercury
If only I could be
Over what hadn't begun
How can it be over
It hasn't even begun

Do I fail you
Do you scare yourself
I know you're not a saint yet
Neither am I
I guess that time put out the flame
Now I don't ever know
The meaning of my name
How can it be over
When it hadn't begun
How can it be over
It hasn't begun
You're free to go now
Be alone in the flesh
And I won't think of you
I'll try to see myself
Should I stare into the lake
Free like mercury
The past we must forsake
How can it be over
When it hadn't begun
How can it be over
It hasn't begun
I write this song for you
As a contract for the love
And what was true or not
Won't compare to the above
I'll try and hold my head
Should I fall into the sea
Free like mercury
If only I could be
Over what hadn't begun
How can it be over
It hasn't even begun
