Do you know this place
Do you know this face
Do you see the space I live in now
Well I've done my best,
But I failed the test
Cos I see the pain upon your brow

And we're all creatures,
Creatures of habit now
Creatures ..
Creatures of habit now

Did I say it wrong
Did I come on too strong
Did I pull the rug from beneath you now
It's a lame excuse,
But please don't confuse me
With a girl who does not exist now

And we're all creatures,
Creatures of habit now
Creatures ..
Creatures of habit now

We take, we pay
We leave, we stay,
We lick our wounds and start again
We live on hope,
We learn to cope,
Till the ones we've hurt come home again

So forgive me and come home..

And if I turn you wild,
If I turn you to a child,
With words so harsh they break your will
If I turn you back
to the darkest days
please believe me, that angry heart is still..

we're all creatures now
