"Tar Baby"


grandma came to see
something she could not believe
how could her girl be
so naive

tar baby, tar baby
told the secret she conceived

oh, that big old smile of yours
could turn the wind into a song
how could i have doubted
honey it's with me that you belong

tar baby, tar baby
i love you so
(i love you)

like a brand new blade
you cut into my life
cut through two decades
like a hot coal on ice

tar baby, my tar baby
it maybe, was meant to be
when i look at you
i can't believe my eyes
and with your magic
i think you just might charm the birds out of the skies

tar baby, tar baby
came good out of grief

a golden thread inside of the web
that i got caught in
oh, it's a lover's revenge, but out of the pain
come the best things you see

you cut into my life
you cut into my life (baby baby baby baby don't you know that)
you cut into my life (i love you)
you cut into my life

la la la la la ooh
you can turn the wind into a song
la la la la la baby baby baby
it's with me you belong

It's gonna take a while before I give in.
See the people fussing and theiving.
While the sharks are wheeling and dealing.

Bullet Proof Soul

I was so in love with you
You rarely see a love that true
Wasn't that enough for you
Wasn't that enough for you

I would climb a mountain
I wouldn't want to see you fall
Rock climb for you
And give you a reason for it all

You kept on thinking
You were the only one
Too busy thinking
Love is a gun

Hit me like a slow bullet
Like a slow bullet
It took me some time to realise it

You kept on thinking
You were the only one
Too busy thinking
Love is a gun

I know the end before
The story's been told
It's not that complicated
But you're gonna need a bullet proof soul

You kept on thinking
You were the only one
Too busy thinking
Love is a gun

I know the end before
The story's been told
It's not that complicated
But you're gonna need a bullet proof soul

You were trigger happy baby
You never warned me let me free
It's not that complicated
But you're gonna need a bullet proof soul
Think you got it but you got all the trouble you need
I came in like a lamb
But I intend to leave like a lion

It hit me like a slow bullet
It hit me like a slow bullet

Cherish The Day

You're ruling the way that I move
And I breathe your air
You only can rescue me
This is my prayer

If you were mine
If you were mine
I wouldn't want to go to heaven

I cherish the day
I won't go astray
I won't be afraid
You won't catch me running
You're ruling the way that I move
You take my air

You show me how deep love can be

You're ruling the way that I move
And I breathe your air
You only can rescue me
This is my prayer

I cherish the day
I won't go astray
I won't be afraid
You won't catch me running
I cherish the day
I won't go astray
I won't be afraid
Won't run away

Won't run away
Won't shy

When I met you boy, you were as sweet as cherry pie.

I'll ask you anyway.

Clean Heart

Clean heart
Clean and sharp
Clean dream
Bad start

He loved his brother and his sister
Luke and Tony called him Mister
They made him feel much more
Like a man
He loved his daddy though he never told him
And how he loved his mother
He loved
He loved her like an Italian

Little Janet said you look so fine
So fine
Something in his smile
Made them feel like strangers
And then he straightened his belt
With a lover's touch
And he said I'm gonna bring home
The things that are out of your clutch

Seemed like the hottest night in summer
A heat that makes you feel like dying

Somewhere in the next block
There was a baby crying

Finger on the trigger for the years to come

And as the moon slid up over the restless streets
Sirens mocking and people stop to see
Their greedy eyes don't realise
He's someone's son
Finger on the trigger for the years to come

Finger on the trigger for the years to come
