Wolf In Houndstooth
04:21
|
|||
there's a wolf in houndstooth
blowing down my front door
and if i stay too long
she might try to take me to war
baby you got some nerve
you're going to get what you deserve
her beady little eyes
always peer deep into my soul
and if she had it her way
she might never let me go
Lolita fingers holding me down
under your threshold i'm tightly unwound
you press them all with the tip of your tongue
they don't know they're yours one by one

Lion-Sized Frampton

am i that easy to forget?
it's time well spent
another lover in the books
so save those looks
you and i have said our goodbyes
so long, farewell, baby it's hell
you told me things would never change
i'm so deranged
how much more foolish could i be?
it's easy to see

Car Stares
02:51
|
|||
drove by your house, saw your car and thought about you
make, model and year, there must be a thousand, i swear
who are you when i'm not around?
these questions keep me bound
some other guy tells you things you want to hear
but when its time i'm the one who's always there
time is long and the days slip by
won't you help me make it through the night?
everywhere, i see you appear
but i know it's just my imagination

Bluest Heart
03:24
|
|||
i got the bluest heart around
since my baby left this town
she packed her things and said goodbye
she didn't leave no reason why
now i've got the bluest heart around
how could you leave me alone like this?
did you forget those sweet lips that you used to kiss?
oh i tried to drink you slowly off my mind
each ounce replacing every tear i cried
i'm keeping all your promises, i'll put them on a shelf
when you decide to come back they'll be for no one else
i thought we had a good thing i guess i spoke too soon
do you miss these arms of mine or did you find someone new?

Amber Vistalite
02:55
|
|||
on your mark, hold your cue
i see you glowing with an orange-ish hue
exposing light through the lens
the shutter blinks and time suspends
put me back together
the king's men know no better
cause i keep falling for you
strike a pose to bat a lash
quicker than a burning flash
soft focus each new frame
Kodachrome® is how i tame
(you keep stalling)
can't stand for falling for you

Child of Wildfire
03:03
|
|||
her hair is burning in the summer light
we fool around in the middle of the night
even though we know it's wrong
she tells me all my songs sound the same
rewrite "Surrender" or maybe "The Flame"
there's nothing in common that i see
child of wildfire, panties on the wire
lookout, someone just might try to take your place
freedom cruise through the tallest pines
the tops down but i still hear her whine
she making out to forget someone too
she tell me all about her new boyfriend
she tells me that i can't see her again
even though she calls me past two
child of wildfire, panties on the wire
lookout, someone just might try to take your place
child of wildfire, soundtrack for desire
lookout, someone just might try to steal your name
her bed is burning in the summer night
we fool around just to keep things tight
even though we know it won't last

The Hold
03:02
|
|||
i try to run, i try to hide
but these feelings won't subside
you've got such a hold on me
day to day, you cross my mind
everywhere it's you i find
you've got such a hold on me
i keep saying that someday
i'll break free from your charm
but when the night comes
i just fall right back into your arms
the little things that you do
only make me stay with you
you've got such a hold on me
what's the cost to set me free?
tell me now i'll pay the fee
you've got such a hold on me
release me, won't you let me go
so i can love again?
i'll beg, steal even borrow
just to see past tomorrow
you've got such a hold on me
you've got a strangle hold
don't want to let me go

Teisco Telstar Stomp
01:54
|
|||
can i shake my tail for you?
i may break a heart or two
i can steal a cats meow
i'd really like to show you how
if you want it nightly
i can times it by two
i invite you rightly
to tell me girl if you it's true
what they say about you
honeysuckle candy rose
let your body do what it knows
touch your toes and say my name
you don't have to be ashamed

Combat December
02:26
|
|||
i feel the cold taking over me
the days are short with no apology
you left me reeling aching and kneeling
gone are the days we spent in the sun
our love affair had only begun
i had such high hope where did our summer go?
combat december
june is just around the corner
sheets of white settle on the ground
covering where we'd hang around
no solstice visits no frozen kisses
you know i count each passing day
'til you arrive just after may
no don't forsake me please don't forget me

i'm an opportunistic fleeting lover
i might tell you lies when we're undercover
i don't think i was ever meant to fall in love
i think cupid lost his bow or he had to go
he shot all his arrows, i don't know
i don't think i was ever meant to fall in love
could it be that i may not get there?
or could it be that i just don't care?
i don't think i was meant to fall in love
are you sure you want to get involved with me?
i could disappear before you count to three
i don't think i was ever meant to fall in love
i think cupid lost his bow or he had to go
he shot all his arrows, i don't know
i don't think i was ever meant to fall in love
