I could sit and watch you sing for hours, I could listen to her talk forever,
But she speaks around me, and she talks to everyone else…
I could spend all time with you girl, even though you don’t need that much,
But she speaks around me, and she talks to everyone else
I can’t figure out what is worse, A woman who doesn’t know..
Or a woman, who reaps just what she sows..
And maybe I cant take that hint, maybe I should give up on it
But she gives it all to me, and she throws herself out for me
I’ve always loved the girl, with the ocean in her eyes, But finally I’ve found a girl with waves of amber fields in her eyes… and it makes me wanna lay, down in them all day
‘Cause maybe its better to be on solid ground than tossed about in the sea
I can’t figure out what is worse, A woman who doesn’t know..
Or a woman, who reaps just what she sows..
And maybe I cant take that hint, maybe I should give up on it
But she gives it all to me, and she throws herself out for me
She looks at me, while she sings her song and for a second I am happy,
The blood’s pumping through my veins, for a second I am happy,
Fermented in my cotton corpse I see her eyes,
It take me home again.
If we could break out of these cotton shells and flow together in that stormy field,
Would she cut that brick that’s been tied to my heart?
I’ve been drownin’ for all these years.
Would she look at me and tell me not to ever let her go?
She looks at me
She is happy
