love like laughter

Singer:beth orton

some of the worst wrongs

get righted on three chords

like a promise

or a kiss goodbye

when the sneer on your lips

is the liveliest thing

just alive enough to die

i open my heart

in my heart there's something telling me

to open my heart

open my heart

yeah

i've been blind

and all that's been lost

is a short loop running round my mind

love is like laughter

see it happen by chance

like a promise

be a kiss goodbye

when the smile on your lips

is the liveliest thing

more alive than any sky i've seen

i open my heart

in my heart is there's something telling me

to open my heart

i open my heart

see i've been blind

and all that's been cut

is a short loop running round my mind

i open my heart

in my heart there's something telling me

to open my heart

i open my heart

see i've been blind

and all that's been cut

is a short loop running round my mind

it's just running round my mind

running all the time

running all the time

it's a short loop

a short loop

running round my mind.
