stay for me (heartsick)
03:18
|
|||
|
my heart is sick
and all there is
for company
at 3 a.m. is coffee
and i bide the time
for the sun to shine
to drown myself in
self-confessed sin
a cup and a half
to ease the pain
i'm weak to my knees
watching you leave
forgive me please
and stay for me....
for her to go out
and find someone else
to fill the void
where i once employed
your love
this terrible thought
of love removed
to drown myself in
self-confessed sin
a cup and a half
to ease the pain
i'm weak to my knees
watching you leave
forgive me please
and stay for me...
and i'll keep it down
til morningtime
and i'll keep it down
to drown myself in

late autumn sky
early morning day
she wants to ice skate
for half an hour
you can stay the night
it'll be alright
we're naked to the moon
and night
staring at the moon
for half an hour
a day trip to the beach
with terrible eyesight
late autumn sky
early morning day
you can stay the night
it'll be alright
we're naked to the moon
and night

we can fall
02:57
|
|||
|
yes it's true
i care about you
an unhappy wife
in an unhappy life
good intentions here
yes we can fall
we're allowed to
yeah we can fall
if we want to
let's take a midday nap
so european
and i won't tell a soul
about us
beauty is so rare
so much it goes unmatched
in the summertime
you're here
yes we can fall
we're allowed to
yeah we can fall
if we want to
yes it's real
this situation
you and i
just breathing
unhappy wife
in an unhappy life
one that she'll be leaving

a girl i used to know
03:21
|
|||
|
i convince her of
the lateness of my hours
entertain the night
i don't understand
the fuss she makes
she wants me over
for a little while
but i can't stay...
i wish you'd understand
you can't be with me
you should be with him
instead of someone like me..
she was saddened by
my loneliness
but i am just alone
merely amuse myself
in my night time hours
at home
but you can't stay
i wish you'd understand
you can't be with me
you should be with him
instead of someone like me

this afternoon
a snowfall
covers you in cold
an auburn-haired
american girl i know
you didn't stay for too long
inside this ice and snow
this afternoon
the sunshine
melts us
to the ground
where your charcoal eyes
and corncob pipe
are found

see her fall
03:17
|
|||
|
some things you can't forget
like the way she holds her cigarettes
to the charm of the camera
she enjoys the inside views
see her fall
isn't it charming?
wink & smile and make her time
a part of you that you never knew
and you sit beside me
wondering what tomorrow brings
isn't it charming?
see her fall
isn't it charming?
see her fall
isn't it charming?

...and breathe
02:30
|
|||
|
yes i need some space
a little room to move
some space to breathe
time away from you
i understand your needs
and uneasiness
we are now free to leave
just go
ahead
and breathe
growing up together
moving apart alone
and everything about her
....like home
she can change my mind
almost all the time
we are now free to leave
just go
ahead
and breathe

beautiful junkie
02:26
|
|||
|
in a candy store
a beautiful junkie
a twenty dollar whore
somewhere
in the distance
in a darkened room
she is getting over
goodbye
and i let her go
i will get through this
and i'll let her know
how i'll do this
she would say
we're blue
tattooed
and used
different points of view
shades of you
in blue
and i let her go
i will get through this
and i'll let her know
how i'll do this.

paris, 1891
02:05
|
|||
|
do you give
the days
away?
on a one way
paris train?
only if she stayed
here.
someday
when the world
is mine
and we are out
of valentines
you could try
to trade me in
only if she stayed
here.
stomache aches
nursery rhymes
is all i have to say

how it makes her feel
01:59
|
|||
|
oh no hey
i forgot all about you
for a little while
the way you squint
your nervous smile
t-shirt tucked into your dress
and now she lives in london
and sometimes she writes me
about the rain...
....and how it makes her feel
the rain...
...and how it makes her feel
& when she phones long distance
i don't know what to say
too much time has passed between us
i don't feel the same
she says she keeps a diary
writes about me there
but i don't care...
...about how it makes her feel
care....
...how it makes her feel.
