Lyrics

[Verse 1: Andy Bell] Hey little wise man You got the sweetest notion (Ooh, the sweetest thing) Just once in a lifetime You need a helping hand (Ooh, a helping hand) [Pre-Chorus 1] You keep it wrapped up inside It's like a lethal potion (Gonna find it soul-destroying) [Chorus: Andy Bell & Jane Ayre] Woah, don't take it any further now baby Woah, won't lead you anywhere Woah, it's pushing and a-hurting you baby Woah, I'll say a little prayer [Verse 2: Andy Bell] No other wise man Could take the hurt like you do (Ooh, the pain like you) Putting on a brave face But it gets to you somehow (Ooh, gets through somehow) [Pre-Chorus 2: Andy Bell] You hold your head in your hands And the weight of the world on your shoulders (Come and pour your heart out to me) [Chorus: Andy Bell & Jane Ayre] Woah, don't take it any further now baby Woah, won't lead you anywhere Woah, it's pushing and a-hurting you baby Woah, I'll say a little prayer [Interlude] [Pre-Chorus 1: Andy Bell, (Jane Ayre)] You keep it wrapped up inside It's like a lethal potion (Gonna find it soul-destroying) [Chorus: Andy Bell & Jane Ayre] Woah, don't take it any further now baby Woah, won't lead you anywhere Woah, it's pushing and a-hurting you baby Woah, I'll say a little prayer [Outro: Andy Bell & Jane Ayre] (Woah) Don't take it any further now baby Woah, won't lead you anywhere Woah, it's pushing and a-hurting you baby Woah, I'll say a little prayer (Woah) Don't take it any further now baby Woah, won't lead you anywhere
