Tonight I'm wound tighter than a watch spring

Tonight you owe my patience quite a debt

Tonight we're not gonna solve anything

I might say something that we both regret

And now the pressure's on, the heat is rising

The time has come to stop apologising

'Cause when the skies go clear

The threat of rain is always here with you

Tonight the geese are flying

And everything you say is a call to arms

Tonight there's something in the air

Don't come too close, and you'll come to no harm

And now the pressure's on, the heat is rising

The time has come to stop apologising

'Cause when the skies go clear

The threat of rain is always here with you

With you, with you, with you

And now the pressure's on, the heat is rising

The time has come to stop apologising

With all that's gone before

My motives never felt so pure

And now my heart's beset

With 18 carat gold regret

'Cause when the skies go clear

The threat of rain is always here with you
