Intro
I cannot say oh sweetness
like he could
cause I cannot play a lullaby
like it should

Verses
I used to cry but now I have to laugh
because shes got that torment
to a fine art
smart like a foxy
and craf-ty-as--cat
im looking up
as im lying on my back
bite the beast
if i want a big piece of the pie
but shes taken the feast
in the blink of an eye
I can-not-jus-ti-fy
whats going on
- it feels so right
when it seems so wrong
like a plot hatched
in the sweet spot of that trap
- ask what shes schemes
she say oh this and that
then she snaps like a camera
in black with a flash
puts the drum in the drama
the hand in the clap
shes a map with no bearings
attached - no
safety-in-this-match
fire you cant catch
then zap I was struck by that
bolt before dawn
then by breakfast honey
we was signed and sworn
Ill give you all night movie marathon
and a triple expresso so you can stay awake
it might be late - but
its never too late for that lovin
my sexy babe
something always telling me
save prayers before dawn
cos what happens when Im with you
makes me shake my head then smile and yawn
Im worn out but Im beaming
and it seems that we are dreamy
as we head out through that strange old morning door
