Daredevil – James Gillespie

Well ever since I started breathing
I’ve had a fear of growing old
I’ve always loved the feeling
Of losing all control
But I’m not a teenage boy no more
I should be going home
So pour me one more drink
Before I stumble down the road

Visiting girl I was gonna marry
She was the girl behind the bar
And the baby that she carried
Is why I play guitar
Good I’m not a teenage boy no more
Who gambles with her heart
She gives me one more chance
I keep on taking it too far

Daredevil when you gonna wake up
And shine
She ain’t always gonna love a boy like that
It’s a matter of time
When you sober up
Good luck, she’s already saying goodbye
Daredevil when you gonna wake up
And realise
It’s the devil in you puts the tears in her eyes

Well it seems I’ve got a problem
I’m prepared to risk it all
I keep on climbing up a mountain
Just to see how hard I fall
And every time I open up
[?] I’ve been told
And where she’s building bridges
Yeah I’m only building walls

Daredevil when you gonna wake up
And shine
She ain’t always gonna love a boy like that
It’s a matter of time
Before you sober up
Good luck, she’s already saying goodbye
Daredevil when you gonna wake up
And realise
It’s the devil in you that puts them tears in her eyes
Yeah in her eyes

She gives me one more chance
And I lay that chance to waste
Well hallelujah to the girl
Who can forgive my foolish ways
Cause I’m not a teenage boy no more
This moss up on this stone
She holds on to the ties
And not take the chance to roam

Daredevil when you gonna wake up
And shine
She ain’t always gonna love a boy like that
It’s a matter of time
Before you sober up
Good luck, she’s already saying goodbye
Daredevil when you gonna wake up
And realise
It’s the devil in you that puts them tears in her eyes
