S. Colvin |
|
I don't know what else to do |
|
I would rather do anything |
|
Than write this song for you |
|
And perpetuate this thing |
|
In my head, in my living room |
|
With the usual arsenal |
|
Of broken chords and rusty strings |
|
To surrender all |
|
And I don't like to be so weak |
|
Retreating behind these lines |
|
The same old tongue-in-cheek |
|
Regretting that both are mine |
|
And I don't like to live this way |
|
This is really true |
|
But I know better than to pray now |
|
About what I just have to learn to do |
|
But imagine the nerve of God |
|
Letting me let you in |
|
And I thought I could let you go in grace |
|
I've gotta think again |
|
Because right now I would be bought |
|
and sold |
|
To see your face somewhere |
|
I would sell your sweet soul |
|
Just to touch your crazy black gold hair |
|
I don't care what's really real |
|
I was someone that you'd heard of |
|
I saw heaven in your eyes |
|
And we made a deal |
|
And that's what I know of love |
|
Music, it never goes |
|
But I told you I hate that shit |
|
When people say'well you know |
|
You got a song out of it' |
|
But I don't know what else to do |
|
I would rather be anywhere |
|
Than here without you |
