Texty: Housemartins. Johannesburg.
Please, don't show your soul to me
I think I'd see the light shine through
Please, don't greet me on the street
I'd like to see a world without you
'Cause I've found there's nothing more
That I could say to you
Nothing I could do to change your mind
Change your ways and your tune
Please, don't change your uniform
And start to mourn the thousands dead
And please, wear what you've always worn
And don't be drawn by what I've said
'Cause I've found there's nothing more
That I could say to you
Nothing I could do to change your mind
Change your ways and your tune
So please, don?t feel you have to sway
Or move away from how you feel
And please, say what you mean to say
And always stay with a heart of steel
I think I'd see the light shine through
Please, don't greet me on the street
I'd like to see a world without you
'Cause I've found there's nothing more
That I could say to you
Nothing I could do to change your mind
Change your ways and your tune
Please, don't change your uniform
And start to mourn the thousands dead
And please, wear what you've always worn
And don't be drawn by what I've said
'Cause I've found there's nothing more
That I could say to you
Nothing I could do to change your mind
Change your ways and your tune
So please, don?t feel you have to sway
Or move away from how you feel
And please, say what you mean to say
And always stay with a heart of steel
