Soft Machine



It's my, my, my bed you're lying on
And it's my, my, my bed you're dying on
But if it's my head you're relying on

You gotta save yourself – save yourself
Don't enslave yourself – save yourself
Just to save yourself – save yourself
Stay in your own bed at night

Because, girl, you know
That if I try to feed you
And keep you all week to make you feel secure
Then you won't leave my bed
Though you wanna stay fed
Will your heart remain, girl?
You know you can't make it
Without tryin' to fake it
And I believe, baby

You gotta save yourself – save yourself
Don't enslave yourself – save yourself
Just to save yourself – save yourself
Stay in your own bed at night

*can't find right lyrics....song in my head, on my shelf for over 40 years...close, but not.*

peace~

Thank you

Shall we have another?
Been on a kick with this group as of late...

Lullabye Letter

&feature=related

I've got something to tell you
Hold on, I wanted to thrill you
It's nice, makes you feel better
It's called the Lullabye Letter
Hold tight,
I'm not trying to con you
Get ready, I'm going to lay it on you

You're the sweetest thing I see
I'm telling you it's no lie

I've got lights in my brain, girl
We'll have fights in the rain, girl
You'll be good and bad together
Writing songs and call that the weather
If you've got something to sing me
4 o'clock's the best time to ring me

You're the strangest scene I see
I'm telling you it's no lie

You're the sweetest thing I've seen
In my life...



peace~
