i never meant to say you were a thorn in either side
it was a side effect from the scars on the fourty-fives. and as the vital mistakes
it reminds me of what we have
despite the things you do
you know i'm a fool for you. they say a legal kiss is not as good as a stolen one
we put our lives on show and yet we sing to a different song. and from the bassinet to the graveside we never walk
of everything i've lost
i miss my mind the most. i never once understood your dealings
a group of friends who i'd give what for. and i could name every crack on our ceiling
a sight of thorns. am i a frame in your bigger picture?
a rope or rein for your stormy seas?
if i could be just a train fare richer
i'd change my needs
i'd change my needs
i'd change my needs
i'd change my needs
and in the half light a rush of violence is in the place
and if a look could kill you'd need a licence for your face. you say that love is blind and i'm the one who restored your sight. the girl who never knows
i'm the girl who never knows
i never once understood your dealings
a group of friends who i'd give what for. and i could name every crack on our ceiling
a sight of thorns. am i a frame in your bigger picture?
