🎹 Lyrics That Hit The Spot

Who knew any man could place a bet
That would pay off every night before his death
All I’m really looking for is life without regrets if it exists
 
But I don't wanna tell you why I don't cry anymore
How many nights I've spent clutching my knees against the floor
I buy precooked rice
And I'm not that nice to myself

I don't wanna show you what it's like behind my smile
So I'll just keep my thoughts at bay and kiss you for a while
Let's keep our lips busy, get a little dizzier
Blurring this illusion that I've built for you
Don't shatter it now
 
Carried your books from school,
Playing make-believe you're married to me:
You were fifth grade, I was sixth
When we came to be
Walking home every day over Barnegat Bridge and Bay,
Till we grew into the me and you
Who went our separate ways

My eyes adored you
Though I never laid a hand on you,
My eyes adored you
Like a million miles away from me you couldn't see
How I adored you:
So close, so close and yet so far
 
If I had just one tear running down your cheek
Maybe I could cope maybe I'd get some sleep
If I had just one moment at your expense
Maybe all my misery would be well spent

Could you cry a little? Lie just a little?
Pretend that you're feeling a little more pain?
I gave, now I'm wanting something in return
So cry just a little for me
 
Don't mean to get a little forward with you
Don't mean to get ahead of where we are
Don't mean to act a little nervous around you
I'm just a little nervous about my heart 'cause

It's been awhile since I felt this feeling
That everything that you do gives me
It's been so long since somebody whispered
Shut up and kiss me
 
Take me away (take me away)
To better days (to better days)
Take me away (take me away)
A hiding place (a hiding place)

The sun is on my side.
Take me for a ride.
I smile up to the sky.
I know I'll be all right.

The sun is on my side.
Take me for a ride.
I smile up to the sky.
I know I'll be all right
 
Days get stranger baby
Feel the danger, maybe
You started having second thoughts
Now I'm medicating
Oh it gets agitating
And in your eyes you know I'm lost
 
We were cocaine, playing milk and honey
Dysfunctional, I was a junkie
Someday, this will all be funny, oh, oh, oh, oh

I know everything worked out the way it's meant to be
But honestly

If I had the chance
I would take it back
Jumping off your sinking ship
'Stead of going down with it, oh, oh, oh, oh

One day, I'll be good
Right now, I'm just mad
Over being so mature, if only I was never yours, oh

I could have saved myself
Time and lots of money
Could've saved myself, ah-ooh
I shouldn't blame myself
I kind of saw it coming
Could've saved myself
From you

Red flags, tended to ingore them
 
Simply Irresistible.


Babe….I’d eat your pussy as if I had a vendetta against it.

Violent and messy.
Sluts. ❤️
 
….if ever our love was concealed, no one can say, we didn’t feel.
A million things. A perfect dream of life.

Gone.
Fragile but free. We remain tender together.
If not so in love….it’s not so wrong….
We’re only human after all.


The fire of lust burns fiercely….consuming the raiment of youth….and for those who can survive the fire, love is born.

And out of it…..long suffering, contentment…..humility.

I neither love you more or less than in our youth. But differently….more deeply. More in understanding. As an adult….as one whose fire has burned hotly, and shaped me deeply.

Feel loved my Darling. For you surely are. 🌹🇨🇦
 
You disappeared without a trace
You never bothered to explain
You just walked away
All I wanted was an answer
All I needed was to know
Give me a reason
I need a reason
All those messages I left you
All those nights I spent alone
Give me a reason
 
But I dropped my head, ‘cause it felt like led
And I’m sure I felt your fingers through my hair.
And if I listen to the sound of white,
Sometimes I hear your smile and breathe your light.

✨

SAS 05.04
 
And I don't mind the nights and the low light
We spin 'round like records in the apartment
You still remind me of Marianne Faithfull
Lookin' like a picture taken outta the 60s
 
Idle curtains block the sun, now he's done
His remaining daughter will suggest
That shutting down is not what's best
Who's to say until you go, I don't know
Still you must concede
That there is still a need, it's true
When you can't find the out like most do
 
She laid her heart and soul right in your hands
And you stole her every dream and you crushed her plans
 
If I could make believe what you can see, I'd stop it where it starts
Because you buried it, it bears your name, tears your world apart
The accidental life, the evidence evolves
Enough to cancel out real confidence...
 
I had always tried to do the right thing but
In the end my results were just a little split off center from the most
Though the same was offered to everybody else I mean
What could you blame me for? Truth is I was just being representative of the Midwest
Though I always manage to show up just a little late
So what if I always managed to show up just a little late
In the end no matter how hard I tried I never seemed to make my ride on time
It's all too hard it seems and maybe just a little too much
But in the end I must confess that I have yet to ever offer my best......
 
....You've begun to change now baby, I can see
Oh but I know you well and it's clear to me
You think chains hold you here now baby, but they don't exist
You don't have to stay mama, I won't insist.

So take the train today, and don't look back again
Live the dreams you have, don't dwell on what has been
Your future's brighter now, there's brighter days ahead
Any sad farewell words, better left unsaid

Maybe before you were happy, but now your thoughts aren't of this place
I only wish you were with me, someone like you can't be replaced.




(You, yes You, can never be replaced.)
 
The flame no longer flickers
You're feeling just like a fool
You keep staring into your liquor
Wondering what to do

I don't hardly know you
But I'd be willing to show you
I know a way to make you smile
Let me touch you for a while

I'm gonna ruin my black mascara
You're drinking whiskey when it should be wine
You keep looking into that mirror
But to me, you're looking really fine
 
......You're racing like a fireball dancing like a ghost
You're Gemini and I don't know which one I like the most
My head is getting broken and my mind is getting bust
But now I'm coming with you down the road of golden dust
Oh my love it's a long way
Where you're from it's a long way
 
can you help me remember how to smile?
make it somehow all seem worthwhile
how on earth did i get so jaded?
life's mysteries seem so faded
i can go where noone else can go
i know what no one else knows
here i am just drownin' in the rain
