At The Mercy

Paul McCartney · Chaos and Creation in the Backyard [2005]

At the mercy, at the mercy

At the mercy of a busy road

Who can handle such a heavy load?



At the mercy, at the mercy

At the mercy of a busy day

We can think of nothing more to say



If you me show me love, I won't refuse

I know you'd never make me choose

Between the love I've got and the love I lose



Sometimes I wanna run and hide

Don't stay to face the fear inside



At the mercy, at the mercy

At the mercy of a busy day

Who can barely turn their head away



At the mercy, at the mercy

At the mercy of a busy road

We can watch the universe explode



If you take me up I won't say no

I guess you'd rather see me grow

Into a better man than the one you know



Sometimes my head is hanging low

It's time to get on with the show



At the mercy, at the mercy

At the mercy of a busy day

I can of nothing more to say
