Elizabeth

I'm hiding under covers, wishing I was just another (well) pretty kid
With a mansion and a wallet that would put you straight through college, but I admit
That I've lost it all to silly things, like touring and chasing dreams so, here I stand
I'm lost inside all of these city streets, the 9 to 5's, the kids I meet this
Place is damned
But when I see you, I feel alright
If you don't know love, I don't know life
Lost in your skin, your body's porcelain
On this night
I'm sending empty letters even though I should know better, yeah I am sick
First I'm twisted 'round your thumb, but now I'm twisted 'round your tongue, girl you're my fix
Yeah I'm haunted by your summer eyes, the city nights, the fireflies, they're all I see
I pray to god that I don't find a job, so I can make my life your song
You'll sing with me
'Cuz when I see you, I feel alright
If you don't know love, I don't know life
Lost in your skin, your body's porcelain
On this night
My heart forever grows
I've lost all self control
Your skin and lips will move my hips
We'll make this quite a show
And if you ever leave
They'll take me to a stage
Where I can sing for thousands
And get them to scream your name
I'm certain now that I am found and when I leave this awful town you, can't complain
Because my dreams were meant for more than this and LA's where my head exists I'll, take a plane
Back to the town where all the Angels sleep, where superstars still count their sheep where, dreams are made
I'll get that mansion and that wallet and I'll put you straight through college girl we'll, have it made
'Cuz when I see you, I feel alright
If you don't know love, I don't know life
