lyrics

We both know love comes with conditions
Collusions, collisions, unplanned revisions
And small print.
Darling we’re no different,
It’s you and me or you and someone else.

Between the womb and the tomb
There’s not a lot of room
To be the people we want to be.
Now I’m all rage,
I’ve forgotten how to act my age
Everything is slipping away from me.

Baby, I am the man you’re holding on to right now
But tell me who is the man you’re holding on for?
I want to know more.

Joking apart, don’t you dare enjoy the start,
We need to save our smiles for the happy ending.
I’ve put myself through hell
But these thoughts won’t think themselves
And I’m wondering if you’re just pretending.

Now my inner child is watching
So I’ve put him up for adoption
Because I suspect he’s up to something really bad.
And you still give me chills
You’ve got me hooked through the gills
But love never stopped anyone feeling sad.

Baby, I am the man you’re holding on to right now
But tell me who is the man you’re holding on for?
I want to know more.

It’s just the echo of a memory
Of a shadow of a regret
And the regrets are all for things
I haven’t even done yet.
I’m just a privileged boy
Battling for his right to a little misery
Wishing you were kissing me
And wishing it meant more.

I am the man you’re holding on to right now
But tell me who is the man you’re holding on for?

Louis Barabbas & The Bedlam Six Manchester

Between 2006-2016 the Bedlams relentlessly peddled their peculiar brand of Dirt-Swing, capturing the imaginations of every species of listenership, winning support from the likes of Supergrass, The Mighty Boosh, Har Mar Superstar, UB40, Mark Steel, The Hell’s Angels and BBC Radio, inspiring stage invasions, dancing in the aisles and a confused mixture of exhaustion and bonhomie wherever they went ... more
