Lyrics : Charlotte Eriksson
Music : Charlotte Eriksson
Staring at the phone that’s calling
Knowing all the words we can not say
Remembering your fingers touching
Getting close to me, close to me
Numbing off the pain you left here
Places on myself you used to feel
Feel it right, gonna get it right
Nothing but a vintage novel
I could get you high, close your eyes and see
Oh come with me, come with me
Baby I am not your story
I just want a clean escape out
CHORUS:
But when I’m alone with you
When I’m alone I fall
Yeah when I’m alone with you
Nothing but a ghost that’s haunting
I could get you high, get you off the ground
Just close your eyes and try
I swore I could live just off that feeling
But baby we don’t work outside the city
Maybe we’re a story that I wrote
'bout two kids who were broke
Patti Smith and Rimbaud
Why can’t I let you go, when I don’t want to stay
You’re turning me insane,
You’re painting your portrait of a cold and lonely heart
You found a thousand ways to break a heart
(break a heart, love can’t save us all)
Baby I don’t want to be uneasy
Pulling and then leave ya
Got nothing left to tell ya
He says he can’t understand
I’m so lovely at night but so lonesome at day
We got nothing to say, so I drink it away,
a bottle each day, oh take me away
CHORUS:
But when I’m alone with you
When I’m alone I fall
Yeah when I get close to you
When I get close I fall
