Failure (Alfie Version)

Using the Guardian as a shield

To cover my thighs against the rain

I do not mind about my hair

Your jacket may be waterproof

But I know the moment you get home

You're gonna get your trousers changed

Failure is always the best way to learn

Retracing your steps until you know

Have no fear your wounds will heal

I wish I could travel overground

To where all you hear is water sounds

Lush as the wind upon a tree

I wish I could travel overground

To where all you hear is water sounds

To capture and keep inside of me

Failure is always the best way to learn

Retracing your steps until you know

Have no fear your wounds will heal

Failure is always the best way to learn

Retracing your steps until you know

Have no fear your wounds will heal
