Lyrics The Deep - Young Dubliners

The Deep

Slap me on the face
Tryna' wake me from my great illusion
I’ve been thinkin' I’ve been winnin'
Then I stop and find I’m more losin'
And now it cuts to the bone
I’m alone
Here’s to the winners
You’ve taken it all
Now you’ve got it, can you make it last?
Signed, sealed, delivered
There’s no turnin' back
But you’ll never get away from the past
Say you justify the means
When the end is all you ever wanted
You left your blood, sweat, tears
And all you got was broken-hearted
And now you’re losing your mind
And there is nothing inside
Here’s to the winners
You’ve taken it all
Now you’ve got it, can you make it last?
Signed, sealed, delivered
There’s no turnin' back
But you’ll never get away from the past
I’m stuck in the middle
Of a rock and somewhere even harder
Gotta dig down deep
Find the reason that I ever started
It’s all inside
Here’s to the winners
You’ve taken it all
Now you’ve got it, can you make it last?
Signed, sealed, delivered
There’s no turnin' back
But you’ll never get away from the past
Here’s to the winners
You’ve taken it all
Now you’ve got it, can you make it last?
Signed, sealed, delivered
There’s no turnin' back
But you’ll never get away from the past
And you know
