It Never Fails


Went down to Cuba
Heard you on the radio
Coming through in technicolor
Coming through in two-tone
The days are drifting
The writing's on the wall
And the higher you jump
The longer you fall

I need vacation from my holiday
I need the wind to blow my sails
It happens all the time so I say
Sometimes it never fails
Sometimes it never fails

I went back home
Saw you on the T.V.
Coming through in stereo
Staring back at me
The days are melting
I just want to sleep
The things in your possession
You never get to keep

I need vacation from my holiday
I need the wind to blow my sails
It happens all the time so I say
Sometimes it never fails
Sometimes it never fails

I'm just going to stay here
Never gonna know
Start me up to fail
Wind me up and watch me go
