Nothing Gets Through

Nothing （0,3040）Gets Through - Chris Hillman
Lonely like a mine sweeper
Peaceful as a light sleeper
Hungry as a jail keeper after three days on the job
I'm as stable as a forest fawn
As gentle as a good boy gone wrong
All the promise of an early dawn before the rain
You I can tell you're not playing
Nothing gets through
If you see you're not saying still I'm staying
Constant as a love lost
Tender as an early frost
Simple as a doublecross but twice the price
I'm as reckless as a favourite son
As subtle as a smoking gun
Nothing ventured and nothing won and nothing lost
And you I can tell you're not playing
Nothing gets through
If you see saying you're not still I'm staying
Like a soldier who's going home
Or a rider who's just been thrown
High I'm almost grown and almost young
I've taken what it takes
I've paid for my mistakes
Now please before it's too late
Get me out alive
And you I can tell you're not playing
Nothing gets through
If you see you're not saying still I'm staying
you Oh and I can tell you're not playing
Nothing gets through
If you see you're not saying still I'm staying
I've taken what it takes
I've paid for my mistakes
Nothing gets through to you
Nothing gets through to you
Nothing gets through to you
Nothing gets through
