Until I Believe In My Soul Lyrics - Nowhere Is Home: Live At The Duke Of York's Theatre - Dexys

I'll need tonight to sit and think about this 

Think what to do. 

I'll take some strength to banish hollow sorrow. 

Hollow sorrow's nothing new. 

Just enough strength to last until tomorrow 

Until I believe in my soul. 

Tonight I lost sight of all purpose 

Despite all this trickery you told me was right. 

I was such a good boy I let you hold the door 

So kind, so nice, where's my prize? 

(That's all there ever is) Oh yeah yeah yeah? 

(That's all there ever was) Ah you must be fucking joking. 

(The same for everyone) Oh yes. Yes yes. 

Would you repeat that. Break it to me gently, 

Stand over there. 

Oh I know I was an arrogant boy but I let you hold the door 

Oh I was kind. I was nice, where's the prize? 

And I'm on the train from New Street 

To Euston. I'm going out to Harrow again 

And I'm trying to get the feeling 

That I had in nineteen seventy two. 

Oh but you're going too fast for me here, 

I'm saying, wait a minute there, wait a minute there 

Hold it, stop! Let me get this clear 

(That's all there ever is) oh yeah yeah yeah? 

(That's all there ever was) yes, yes. ha ha ha. 

(The same for everyone) Oh yes. yes. yes. 

You see I know what this is, I know 

What's going on here, this is just the difference between 

It's the battle between the body and the soul. The spirit 

And what's needed here 

What I intend to do now is I'm going to punish my body. 

I'll punish the body to believe in the soul, I will punish 

my body, until I believe in my soul
