Bare with me   I'm almost there, up those stairs   I've learnt my lines, combed my hair   I've played the dice, once or twice   I drew a blank, now I'll take me share      Bare with me   I'm almost there, God knows where   I called my man, my only fan   He cools the air... such an eery affair   Now I'm in need, well I've taken heed   That no-one needs such a lonely head      I've taken every avenue open-hearted   And this is how I've paid   I've ended every episode broken-hearted   And this is how   This is how      Bare with me   I'm almost there, up those stairs   But I've got my man, he's my only fan   He cools the air... such an eery affair
