Sanctuary


Sometimes all you need is just a day off
instead of those glitter and gold.

He Does What The Night Does To The Day


"I've been feeling foolish, you should try it
She came and substituted the peace and quite for
Acrobatic blood, flow concertina
Cheatin' heartbeat, rapid fire.."

Crawling Back To You


Have you got colour in your cheeks?Do you ever get that fear that you can't shift the tidethat sticks around like something in your teeth?Hiding some aces up your sleeveHave you no idea that you're in deep?I've dreamt about you nearly every night this weekHow many secrets can you keep?Cause there's this tune I found that makes me think of you somehow and I play it on repeatUntil I fall asleepSpilling drinks on my settee

(Do I wanna know?)If this feeling flows both ways(Sad to see you go)Was sorta hoping that you'd stay(Baby we both know)That the nights were mainly made for saying things that you can't say tomorrow day

Crawling back to you

Ever thought of calling when you've had a few?Cause I always doBaby I'm too busy being yours to fall for somebody newNow I've thought it through

Crawling back to you

So have you got the guts?Been wondering if your heart's still open and if so I wanna know what time it shutsSimmer down and pucker upI'm sorry to interrupt it's just I'm constantly on the cusp of trying to kiss youI don't know if you feel the same as I doBut we could be together if you wanted to

(Do I wanna know?)If this feeling flows both ways(Sad to see you go)Was sorta hoping that you'd stay(Baby we both know)That the nights were mainly made for saying things that you can't say tomorrow day

Crawling back to you

Ever thought of calling when you've had a few? (calling when you've had a few)'Cause I always do ('cause I always do)Baby I'm too busy being yours to fall for somebody newNow I've thought it through

Crawling back to you

(Do I wanna know?)If this feeling flows both ways(Sad to see you go)Was sorta hoping that you'd stay(Baby we both know)That the nights were mainly made for saying things that you can't say tomorrow day(Yeah)

(Do I wanna know?)Too busy being yours to fall(Sad to see you go)Ever thought of calling down?(Baby we both know)Do you want me crawling back to you?

To fall for somebody new

Crawling back to you.."

Screwed Up & Brilliant


"You said I was the most exotic flower
Holding me tight in our final hour

I don't know how you convince them and get them, but
I don't know what you do, it's unbelievable
And I don't know how you get over, get over
Someone as dangerous, tainted and flawed as you

One for the money, and two for the show
I love you honey, I'm ready, I'm ready to go
How did you get that way? I don't know
You're screwed up and brilliant,
Look like a million dollar man,
So why is my heart broke?

You got the world but baby at what price?
Something so strange, hard to define

It isn't that hard boy to like you or love you
I'd follow you down down down,
You're unbelievable
If you're going crazy just grab me and take me
I'd follow you down down down, anywhere anywhere

One for the money, two for the show
I love you honey, I'm ready, I'm ready to go
How did you get that way? I don't know
You're screwed up and brilliant,
Look like a million dollar man,
So why is my heart broke?

One for the money, two for the show
I love you honey, I'm ready, I'm ready to go
How did you get that way? I don't know
You're screwed up and brilliant,
Look like a million dollar man,
So why is my heart broke?

I don't know,
You're screwed up and brilliant,
Look like a million dollar man,
So why is my heart broke?"

Dreams, Dreams


"Sometimes I find myself sittin' back and reminiscing
Especially when I have to watch other people kissing
And I remember when you started calling me your Mrs.
All the play fightin', all the flirtatious dishes
I'd tell you sad stories about my childhood
I don't know why I trusted you but I knew that I could
We'd spend the whole weekend lyin' in our own dirt
I was just so happy in your boxers and your tshirt

Dreams, dreams of when we had just started things
Dreams of you and me
It seems, it seems that I can't shake those memories
I wonder if you have the same dreams too

The littlest things that take me there
I know it sounds lame but it's so true
I know it's not right but it seems unfair
The things are remindin' me of you
Sometimes I wish we could just pretend
Even if only for one weekend
So come on tell me
Is this the end?

Drinkin' tea in bed, watching DVDs
When I discovered all your dirty grotty magazines
You'd take me out shopping and we'd buy is trainers
As if we ever needed anything to entertain us
The first time that you introduced me to your friends
And you could tell that I was nervous so you held my hands
When I was feeling down, you made that face you do
There's no one in the world who could replace you

Dreams, dreams of when we had just started things
Dreams of me and you
It seems, it seems that I can't shake those memories
I wonder if you feel the same way too

The littlest things that take me there
I know it sounds lame but it's so true
I know it's not right but it seems unfair
The things are remindin' me of you
Sometimes I wish we could just pretend
Even if only for one weekend
So come on tell me
Is this the end?"

Still one of Lily's best. ♥

My Name Is Adam, I'm Your Biggest Fan


"You're a part-time lover and a full-time friend
The monkey on your back is the latest trend
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else
But you

Here is the church and here is the steeple
We sure are cute for two ugly people
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else
But you

We both have shiny happy fits of rage
I want more fans, you want more stage
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else
But you

You're always trying to keep it real
And I'm in love with how you feel
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else
But you

I kiss you on the brain in the shadow of the train
I kiss you all starry-eyed, my body's swingin' from side to side
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else
But you
 
The pebbles forgive me, the trees forgive me
So why can't you forgive me?
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else
But you

Do do do do do do do
do do do
Do do do do do do do
do do do do
I don't see what anyone can see in anyone else
But you.."
