about
From the album 'Smoke Up Close'
lyrics
i’d call it through, i’ve seen the signs
won’t waste my time any longer
you made your choice so go let it loose
go play and lose with the rainbows
where i don’t know who i see when i look at you now
did you lie down for him
did you give yourself to him
and dip your stupid toes in stormy waters?
you look lonely and cold, a thousand years old
and your eyes don’t show what you have
but what you’ve sold
i don’t need to know but i want to know
let it all come on let
the bad times roll
i don’t know who i see when i look at you now
did you lie down for him
did you give yourself to him
and dip your stupid toes in stormy waters?
i’ve told you once, i’ve told you twice
the hundred thousand times that i have tried
i’m doing fine, i’ll be alright (i)
don’t waste my time chasing rainbows
‘cause i don’t know who i see when i look at you now
did you lie down for him
did you give yourself to him
set yourself adrift on stormy waters?
you crossed the bridge of sighs
as he spattered your insides
to sink up to your neck in stormy waters
won’t waste my time any longer
you made your choice so go let it loose
go play and lose with the rainbows
where i don’t know who i see when i look at you now
did you lie down for him
did you give yourself to him
and dip your stupid toes in stormy waters?
you look lonely and cold, a thousand years old
and your eyes don’t show what you have
but what you’ve sold
i don’t need to know but i want to know
let it all come on let
the bad times roll
i don’t know who i see when i look at you now
did you lie down for him
did you give yourself to him
and dip your stupid toes in stormy waters?
i’ve told you once, i’ve told you twice
the hundred thousand times that i have tried
i’m doing fine, i’ll be alright (i)
don’t waste my time chasing rainbows
‘cause i don’t know who i see when i look at you now
did you lie down for him
did you give yourself to him
set yourself adrift on stormy waters?
you crossed the bridge of sighs
as he spattered your insides
to sink up to your neck in stormy waters
