Save me from the movies and someone else's dreams
While angels make their music and give my spirit wings
I just concertina and wrap around the world
Staying out till six o'clock and singing like a fool

I've only got this morning to live
Look at all the colors at my fingertips

I don't want to stand still
I just want to freewheel
I don't want to lose this

I don't want to stand still
I just want to freewheel
I don't want to lose this

Save my feet from dancing with just anyone at all
Worn out shoes cause lotus blue keeps hanging in the hall
And you're this face in the distance I hope to recognize
But it's like running through deep water trying to look into your eyes

I've only got this morning to live
Look at all the colors at my fingertips

I don't want to stand still
I just want to freewheel
I don't want to lose this

I don't want to stand still
I just want to freewheel
I don't want to lose this

Come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on my soul

I don't want to stand still
I just want to freewheel
I don't want to lose this

I don't want to stand still
I just want to freewheel
I don't want to lose this

Duke Special, real name Peter Wilson, is a songwriter and performer based in Belfast, Northern Ireland. A piano-based songwriter with a romantic style and a warm, distinctly accented voice, he has distinctive long dreadlocks, eyeliner and outfits he describes as "hobo chic".

He is most often accompanied by percussionist "Temperance Society" Chip Bailey, who plays cheese graters and egg whisks, a Stumpf fiddle and a Shruti box, as well as the more typical drums and cymbals.
