 Record Mirror Review

It's only confusion

When your dreams hit the floor
You make your decision
But you can't hide when your heart calls
This is my confession
(You always make me do what I don't want to)
Now I've learnt my lesson
(I don't know what to do thinking about you)
Chorus
You can't run or hide from the tears inside
No matter what you say it's only nature's way
And sometimes in your life it's such a lonely climb
And no one takes the blame it's only nature's way
It's nature's way nature's way nature's way
It's no problem no problem don't bother me
It's thunder and lightning
With every beat of your heart
You may wish it were over
But we both knew right from the start
This is my confession
(You always make me do what I don't want to)
Now I've learnt my lesson
(I don't know what to do thinking about you)
Repeat chorus
It's nature's way nature's way nature's way
It's no problem no problem it's here to stay
What is the future
What is the point in making any plans when you're never here
You always build my hopes my dreams
Nothing with you is ever what it seems
Repeat chorus
It's nature's way nature's way nature's way
It's no problem no problem it's here to stay
You can't run or hide from the tears inside
No matter what you say (don't bother me)
And sometimes in your life it's such a lonely climb
And no one takes the blame (it's here to stay)
Repeat to fade
