about

I wrote this song really fast! In fact while I was writing it I was thinking that I could well be writing something that was already written... No idea where the idea came from - but I was probs thinking about footie at the time! I'd been playing bass guitar and singing backing vocals for a couple of country singers previous to this so that was an influence as well.

lyrics

LYRICS
I know it's a cliche - but this time it's true
You were right when you said, 'It's not me - it's you'
And every time you turn around and look at me that way
I don't know where to hide - don't know what to say

CHORUS
Oh well it's time to blow the whistle on me
You deserve more than I can guarantee
I've tried and I've tried to be good company
And now it's time to blow the whistle on me

Love means nothing, when it's a loser's game
And the stakes don't seem high - when you're dealing the pain
But for those who just sit tight - pretending everything's alright
They'll gamble all or nothing - on foolish dreams, the could have beens

CHORUS
Oh well it's time to blow the whistle on me
You deserve more, you deserve honest
I've tried and I've failed so miserably
And now it's time to blow the whistle on me
And now it's time to blow the whistle on me
And now it's time to blow the whistle on me

And when you know down deep inside
There's no place left to hide
The roses had their day
The colours fade, the view is grey
And when you know it's the time - the time to say goodbye
I don't know when
I lost the way

Chorus and finish
