"Your Green Jacket" lyrics
"Your Green Jacket"
You're so gentle and so soft
I like you 'cause it looks to me like you are caught
Between two or three worlds, I am too
Is it OK to say I see some of myself in you?
And even though I know I'm not for you
Is it OK to say I really do adore you?
And I would give anything
To be the one who kisses you
Smelled your jacket,
When you left it on its lonely post
Wrapped it 'round me like it was the holiest of ghosts
Oh your smell it came through
Mmm, made me wish I had my face buried in you
You're soft, you're soft, you're old but you're younger
Oh how I wish I had my head upon your shoulder
Oh how I wish that I could sell myself to you
And do the things that only lovers do
And even though I know I'm not for you
Is it OK to say I really do adore you?
And I would give anything
To be the one who kisses you
Goodnight
Goodnight
Oh close your eyes
Meet me at that crazy apple tree in heaven
We'll go dancing all night
And even though I know I'm not for you
Is it OK to say I really do adore you?
And I would give anything
To be the one who kisses you
Goodnight
Goodnight

John Grant - "GMF" You could probably say I'm difficult.
I probably talk too much.
I over analyze and overthink things.
Yes, it's a nasty crutch.
I'm usually only waiting for you to stop talking
So that I can....
Patti Smith - "Because The Night" Take me now baby here as I am
Pull me close, try and understand
Desire is hunger is the fire I breathe
Love is a banquet on which we feed
Come on now try and understand
The way I feel when I'm in...
Sheryl Crow - "Strong Enough" God, I feel like hell tonight
Tears of rage I cannot fight
I'd be the last to help you understand
Are you strong enough to be my man?
My man
Nothing's true and nothing's right
So let me be alone...
Shakespear's Sister - "I Don't Care" Walking through the rooms in my head
I came across your image
You looked at me with that sweet smile and said
Something they won't let me repeat
We hurt the ones we love the most
It's a subtle form...
Joan Armatrading - "Down To Zero" Oh the feeling
When you're reeling
You step lightly thinking you're number one
Down to zero with a word leaving, for another one
Now you won't put you're feet back on the ground
Down to the ground...
