about

Taken from Oktoba's debut album 'Smoke Signals'

lyrics

Well I don’t wear my heart down
On my sleeves no more

No I don’t wear my heart there cos
I’ve been there before

And I don’t drink till sunrise
To wake up on the floor

No I drink then darling no
Cos I’ve been there before

I ain’t got much
But I got enough
Just the clothes on my back
and a heart of love

And if you
Give it a chance
To see where it lands
and start something new

I’ll share with you my shelter
I’ll share my food and more

I’ll share with you my shelter cos
i’ve been there before

I ain’t got much
But I got enough
Just the clothes on my back
and a heart of love

And if you
Give it a chance
To see where it lands
and start something new

Well, I’ve been making circles lately
Hoping that my mind won’t break me now
Don’t break me now

And it’s the roll of a dice thats going to save me
The kind of advice that’s going to shake me down
Oh shake me now

Because I ain’t got much
But I got enough
Just the clothes on my back
and a heart of love

And if you
Give it a chance
To see where it lands
and start something new

Oh well I ain’t got much
But I got enough
Just the clothes on my back
and a heart of love

And if you
Give it a chance
To see where it lands
and start something new
