Stay

Red Rose waterfalls,
falling from my mouth,
lipstick stains,
black tears falling down,
do you want to stay?
do you wanna stay?
Ripped sheets,
broken seats,
tearing up my mind,
heart beats,
on repeat,
beating out of time,
do you want to stay?
do you wanna stay?
Empty bottles smashing to the floor,
I'm wasted wasting time outside your door,
do you want to stay?
you don't wanna stay.
You're tattoo'd on my brain I'm asking why?
I don't need you I just need your reason why,
you don't want to stay,
you don't wanna stay.
Empty bottles smashing to the floor,
I'm wasted wasting time outside your door,
do you want to stay?
you don't wanna stay.
Empty bottles smashing to the floor,
I'm wasted wasting time outside your door,
do you want to stay?
you don't wanna stay.
Empty bottles smashing to the floor,
I'm wasted wasting time outside your door,
do you want to stay?
you don't wanna stay.
You're tattoo'd on my brain I'm asking why?
I don't need you I just need your reason why,
you don't want to stay,
you don't wanna stay.
Empty bottles smashing to the floor,
I'm wasted wasting time outside your door,
do you want to stay?
you don't wanna stay.

Wouldn't it?

I've been drinking all day
I couldn't find the way I usually get to sleep,
please excuse the mess I made,
photographs and memories beneath your little feet.
Babe it's only been two years,
now i'm more predictable than rain clouds over england,
won't you wipe away your tears,
you don't have to lie to me we both know what you're thinking.
Wouldn't it be easy if we could find the words that sit
so gently on our tongues?
Wouldn't it be easy if we could find the breath that floats
so freely in our lungs?
Wouldn't it?
Wouldn't it be?
If you want me to leave you,
say the word and i'll be gone
I know you're thinking it too,
I get the feeling that I'm not your only one.
Wouldn't it be easy if we could find the words that sit
so gently on our tongues?
Wouldn't it be easy if we could find the breath that floats
so freely in our lungs?
Wouldn't it?
Wouldn't it be?
Wouldn't it be easy if we could find the words that sit
so gently on our tongues?
Wouldn't it be easy if we could find the breath that floats
so freely in our lungs?
Wouldn't it?
Wouldn't it be?

Boat

If I had myself a boat
I'd put it in the pool
I'd lay in it and feel the water move.
If i had myself a boat,
I'd put it in the sea,
i'd lay in it and dream of all the good things we could be.
If you had the time i'd make you notice me,
think of all the good things we could be,
you could be my boyfriend,
hold my hand,
but it's just my boat and me.
If i had myself a boat,
I'd but it in your head.
I'd lay in it and pull on your heart threads.
If you had the time i'd make you notice me,
think of all the good things we could be,
you could be my boyfriend,
hold my hand,
but it's just my boat and me.
If you had the time i'd make you notice me,
think of all the good things we could be,
you could be my boyfriend,
hold my hand,
but it's just my boat and me.

Flesh and Lace

The warmth of your hands round my nimble waist,
the touch of your lips on my neck,
i'll be your girl in flesh and lace,
this ship will never wreck.
We are one when our eyes are meeting.
We are one when we're looking away.
Our hearts in time are beating,
in silence we will lay.
Feel your lungs breath,
feel your heart beat,
flesh and lace,
flesh and lace.
The warmth of your hands round my nimble waist,
the touch of your lips on my neck,
i'll be your girl in flesh and lace,
this ship will never wreck.
Feel your lungs breath,
feel your heart beat,
flesh and lace,
flesh and lace,
flesh and lace,
flesh and lace,
flesh and lace,
flesh and lace.

Ivory Skin

He's like a ghost,
he makes me nervous,
he gives me shivers,
right to my surface.
He makes me laugh,
he knows what i'm thinking,
he's so pretty,
he keeps me from blinking.
Tell him I love his chin and his ivory skin
and the way that he's walking.
He's the only one who can read me like the alphabet,
and I love him more for that.
My heart skips a beat,
whenever I see him,
I struggle to speak,
if I have no reason.
Tell him I love his chin and his ivory skin
and the way that he's walking.
He's the only one who can read me like the alphabet,
and I love him more for that.
Tell him I love his chin and his ivory skin
and the way that he's walking.
He's the only one who can read me like the alphabet,
and I love him more for that.
Tell him I love his chin and his ivory skin
and the way that he's walking.
He's the only one who can read me like the alphabet,
and I love him more for that.

Old Man

Old man,
tell me what's troubling you,
tell me your sorrows,
i'll try and sing to you.
Old man,
staring down an empty cup,
looking for stories,
that used to make her laugh.
Did you know she loved you?
She broke your heart in all the right ways,
she knew you like the palm of her hand.
and she waits for you,
oh she waits for you,
in another land.
Old man,
shut your eyes and fall asleep she'll be there,
when autumn comes and you're feeling weak,
she'll be there,
she'll be there.
Did you know she loved you?
She broke your heart in all the right ways,
she knew you like the palm of her hand.
and she waits for you,
oh she waits for you,
in another land.
