Right Now

Standing on the platform looking through glass,
I could not ask for anything more,
But today, like all good things, has too soon come to pass,
And now we're right back where we were before,
The artificial light turns your hand white,
As it presses against the window in goodbye,
Right now the world was made just for the two of us
And right now we're the only to souls in the universe
It's the best kind of insanity, and I don't know where we're bound,
But I wouldn't change a thing right now,
Walking back to my flat and my unmade bed,
that we had left just hours before,
It didn't take you long to climb into my head,
and tomorrow I'll be wanting for more,
The artificial light turns your hand white,
As it presses against the window in goodbye,
Right now the world was made just for the two of us
And right now we're the only to souls in the universe
It's the best kind of insanity, and I don't know where we're bound,
But I wouldn't change a thing right now,
I can't stop time from pushing forward,
But I'd give anything to rewind,
Replay the last few days,
you know I want you to stay,
you know I'm pause, you know I'm on pause,
until next time,
And through the window pane,
I can still feel your breath,
Right now the world was made just for the two of us
And right now we're the only to souls in the universe
It's the best kind of insanity, and I don't know where we're bound,
But I wouldn't change a thing right now,
I wouldn't change a thing right now,

Never Here

Soft sea that I could sleep at the bottom of,
Tell me is it that you think you're not good enough?
Sharp sun, piercing me, warming my heart, tearing my veins
Would you have chosen me over the bottom of a glass?
Shake the powder form your hands,
Pretend I never tried to understand you
Order another two fingers my dear,
And try to forget I was ever here,
Cold paper that you can use to buy your next fix,
Or line your bed with it,
My body is warmer than that will ever be,
But not enough to make you see,
Shake the powder form your hands,
Pretend I never tried to understand you
Order another two fingers my dear,
And try to forget I was ever here,
You say I am your medicine,
But I could never give you relief,
And you say you would go back there again,
But you've got a selective memory,
I can try to forget everything with you and me,
Move on with my life,
I can't that I'm unhappy we no longer speak,
But I don't know if this will stop the dreams,
If this will stop the dreams,
If this will stop the dreams,
Shake the powder form your hands,
Pretend I never tried to understand you
Order another two fingers my dear,
And try to forget I was ever here,
I was never here
I was ever here

Name Your Price

Sun beats down on my car,
Set dripping down the back of my neck,
thank the lord it's not far,
He says "Darlin' you're as sweet as the sun
And hot as hell too. what time d'you get off?"
What am I doing here?
With wandering eyes and the stench of beer
I've got a whole world to see,
I've just got to get out, just let me be free,
But what am I worth to you?
What am I worth to you?
I can see it in your eyes,
you'd do anything,
So name your price
And He said "girl get on this plane,
I can show you the world , and you can start again"
And I thought "No this won't cost me much,
Just my body and my soul and all I have to do is touch"
But what am I worth to you?
What am I worth to you?
I can see it in your eyes,
you'd do anything,
So name your price
And my mama's crying "Baby where'd you go?"
And my papa he doesn't even know,
Cause I'm scared if he did, I couldn't look him in the eye
And I'm scared if he did, I would have to see him cry,
And I'm scared, so scared, I can't remember why I'm doing this,
Why and I doing this?
What am I worth to you?
What am I worth to you?
I can see it in your eyes,
you'd do anything,
So name your price

Pages turning, encased in your arms,
Your words falling from your mouth into my heart,
Turning troubled water into a sea of calm,
Letting the day drift away, keeping me from harm,
I hope you never stop giving me these words,
Even when the world is doing it's worst,
I want to keep turning your pages until the book is done,
And then I'll pick up a pen and write another one
The complete comprehensive collection
The complete comprehensive collection
Skin on skin and I'm sinking,
into another world with you,
We are explorers in the north,
We a warriors in time of war
We are lovers on a quiet street in Rome,
I hope you never stop giving me these words,
Even when the world is doing it's worst,
I want to keep turning your pages until the book is done,
And then I'll pick up a pen and write another one
The complete comprehensive collection
The complete comprehensive collection
And as I fall into the void,
only pages and heartbeats,
your words falling at my feet,
covering me like autumn leaves
the lights go out and I'm lost at sea,
I want to keep turning your pages until the book is done,
And then I'll pick up a pen and write another one
The complete comprehensive collection
The complete comprehensive collection

Just a Girl

White as snow, isn't that how it goes?
and mother says "don't go into the forest"
Red is shame rising in your cheeks,
Tempting fate by walking through the city alone,
Stick to your path,
Don't stray from your path,
Don't you know you're just a girl?
Don't you know you're Just a girl?
Lady sings her blues, five shows a night,
coke and cash and booze keeps here all right,
but she is dark, she's not virginal and white,
so she is dammed either way. she can never be right,
Stick to your path,
Don't stray from your path,
Don't you know you're just a girl?
Don't you know you're Just a girl?
And this is what you get for all your trouble
voice stolen and unknown,
your life's not your own,
And this is what you get for wanting more,
Try to break the mould,
Find yourself being told "No"
Stick to your path,
Don't stray from your path,
Don't you know you're just a girl?
Don't you know you're Just a girl?
