I KNOW YOU 

I'm still young
I'm still naive
And I know that you know I don't know much about the
industry
And I don't trust you, yeah
So don't expect me to eat
'cause I'm so tired never being taken seriously

I can't be doing with wasting time
What am I doing with my life?
You need to find your own piece of mind
Everybody knows that you're a posh girl
'cause when it comes to cockneys you're down on your
knees

And everybody knows you're fucking intelligent
So, why do you feel the need to plea?

Oh, pretentious, you don't know the meaning of the word
I can't really talk, I'm just another of those girls
But I know something no-one else knows
You're just a follower
A go-er with the go's

I can't be doing with wasting time
What am I doing with my life?
You need to find your own piece of mind
Everybody knows that you're a posh girl
When it comes to cockneys you're down on your knees

And everybody knows you're fucking intelligent
So, why do you feel the need to please?

And where did the indie individual go?
I've been looking back and I simply don't know
And I think he left us with the corporate decision
To make Topshop a logo
And put Doherty in prison

I can't be doing with wasting time
What am I doing with my life?
You need to find your own piece of mind
Everybody knows that you're a man, now, boy
So make me proud and push the crowds away

And everybody knows that you're my man
So please stop asking me

I SPEAK BECAUSE I CAN 

My husband left me last night,
Left me a poor and lonely wife,
I cook the meals and he got the life,
Now I'm just old for the rest of my time.
For he, Oh he, oh my

I speak because I can,
To anyone I trust enough to listen,
You speak because you can,
To anyone who'll hear what you say,
I swear it was not my choice,
I used to be so kind.

Never rode my bike down to the sea,
Never finished that letter I was writing,
Never got up and said anything,
Worthy, for he, for my.

Graceful sleeper,
You midnight dreamer,
I'm floored by your sound,
I'm floored by your sound.

I swear it was not my choice,
To reach out for someone wise,
I used to be so kind,
I used to be so kind.

In the breaking of the morning we'll be dancing on my soft lawn.
When you're shaking out the anger that stops you from taking my call.
When you're running up the highway,
Singing I'm the king, the king of you all.
When you look back to where it started,
I'll be there waving you on.

Never rode my bike down to the sea,
Never quite figured out what I believe,
Never got up and said anything,
Worthy, for he, for my.

I WAS JUST A CARD 

I was just a card, caught up in the stars,
Looking down to Mars.
You know, you know
I know, I know something
About you that you don't want me to know.

Never found a solid hand till I found that man,
Till I found that man of mine.
You were looking at me, thinking,
"Who am I?"

Never knew the sky was white till I took that flight,
Till I took that flight to him,
Tonight.

I was just a card, caught up in the stars,
Looking down to Mars.
You know, you know
He knows, he knows something
About me that I don't want him to know.

Could've sworn I had that man when he took my hand,
When he took my hand down near you.
You were looking at me, thinking,
"Who is she?"

Didn't even see the night till I said goodbye,
Till I said goodbye to him,
Tonight.

IT'S ONLY MY OPINION 

Where is all the cash you saved?
Where is all the cash you saved?
It went up your nose
What did your family say?
What did your family say?
Said they didn't know.

Said they'll buy you a car and a flat and a key
And said they'll come around
Poor little rich girl doesn't get her way
Unless she stomps her foot on the ground

Maybe it's just another matter of opinion
Maybe she got into bad things when she was too young
God we're so controlling
What am I to do?
I'm not going to sit here
And just wait for truth

So who's the girl you were with last night?
Who's the girl you were with last night?
You dont know her name
Well what was she like?
What was she like?
I don't know, we're all the same

So you've got enough cash to buy your lass
But you dont know what she cares for
So you better watch out my son
I've heard your story lots before

Maybe it's just another matter of opinion
Maybe he got into bad things when he was too young
God we're so controlling
What am I to do?
I'm not going to sit here
and just wait for truth

God we're so controlling
What am I to do?
I'm not going to sit here
And just wait for truth

Where is all the cash you saved?
Where is all the cash you saved?
It went up your nose
What did your family say?
What did your family say?
Said they didn't know

So they buy you a flat and a car and a key
And said they'll come around
When they don't come round you think they don't care
So you'll get into the bad crowd.

Maybe it's just another matter of opinion
Maybe she got into bad things when she was too young
God we're so controlling
What am I to do?
I'm not going to sit here
And just wait for truth

LONDON TOWN 

I know, I know she came to save you,
But she knocked my drink over too.
And I know, I know that she wants you,
She looks at you the way that I do.

Well if you think that I'm lying,
Why would I give up trying so soon?

Where'd you go, where'd you go,
Where'd you leave me of my soul?
Where'd you go?
And how's it now, how's it now, how's it back in London Town,
Where you let me down?

And I know, I know what you've been through,
You think I don't care but I really do.
And I know, I know that it hurts you,
But you'd be pleased that she is,
Now what would you do?

Well if you think that I'm lying,
Why would I give up trying so soon?

Where'd you go, where'd you go,
Where'd you leave me of my soul?
Where'd you go?
How's it now, how's it now, how's it back in London Town,
Where you let me down?

And it's all of bad things,
I wish I hadn't done.
I know your rule about the dancing,
But I, I just don't find it fun.
Would you care if i cared to?
Would you run from you?

Where'd you go, where'd you go,
Where'd you leave me of my soul?
Where'd you go?
And how's it now, how's it now, how's it back in London Town,
Where you let me down?Official lyrics powered by

LOVE BE BRAVE 

In a world you can get lost in
I find my way to him
I am purpose in the grid
Passing feelings I forget

What will I do then?
How could I sleep at night
Without you by my side
Hold me darling, make no sound
Silence speaks for me

Love be brave
No one will say it but you
And that has not yet been a easy thing to do
How does he make love seem sweet
Isn't that some heavy feat

Do the birds offer so
Do they sing because they know
This life don't go slow

Love be brave
No one will save you but me
And that has not yet been the safest place for me
What will we do now?

Here comes a change over me
Something strange takes over me
I am brave and love is sweet
And silence speaks for him and me

MADE BY MAID 

They dance like sirens, hoping the sun would come out again
And I was born in the fog of that day
Can they hear a babe over all the faith,
Or have they forgot what it was that they made

Crawled out of the fog, found a river,
Found a log and floated away
Didn't think I'd be coming back this way
But my feet are resolute;
Found their root and brought me back to it's place

And on the hill where I was born,
There is no rose but just a thorn;
They cut it off each year and give it away

But can they hear a babe after all these days,
Or have they forgot what it was that they made

So left to wander blind, I find myself in cautious times,
And they say, Love's labor is never lost; labor on to this very day.
So I walk into the fog, found a babe atop a log and all alone
Took him under, took him on,
Taught him everything about the world I'd come to know

And he blames me for every wrong ever he made
I am blamed for every wrong ever he made
Forgive me I am only a maid
Forgive me I am only a maid

But I can see a babe under all that blame
And I am forgot from the day I am laid.

MEXICO 

Well come on let's go
And head off to Mexico
And build our dreams on siestas of the day
I'll take my guitar
Who knows, it might get us far
And we'll call each other by our fake names

We'll restart our lives
Cut the others off with lies
You don't know how lucky we are
But it's you, me and Mexico
You, me and Mexico
You, me and Mexico
And my guitar

We'll open that tequila bar
And spend nights under the stars
And we'll sing songs of salvation
And when our tricks grow old
We might be so bold as to think of things
And broaden our reputation

We'll restart our lives
Cut the others off with lies
You don't know how lucky we are
But it's you, me and Mexico
You, me and Mexico
You, me and Mexico
And my guitar

I'll sing the melody line
Watch you drinking wine
And we'll say how life is pretty funny
We'll busk our way there
'Cause we're the perfect pair
And we'll find there's more life to money

We'll restart our lives
Cut the others off with lies
You don't know how lucky we are
We'll restart our lives
Cut the others off with lies
You don't know how lucky we are
But it's you, me and Mexico
You, me and Mexico
You, me and Mexico
And my guitar

MY FRIENDS 

My friends, my dear friends
And lovers, oh my lovers
I'd leave you for them

They got a hand on my back

Mama has money now and Mama has friends
She's making rags for some uptown hags
With their money in bags
And why are you so sad?

Why are you always so sad?
Why do I not understand?
Why don't I see what it is you see?
Why can I live and just be?

I'm full of guilt
I am full of guilt
You're very tall, you're very handsome
You have it all, your skin smells like man

And I, you never know how I ache
You will never know how I ache
Don't touch that in grace

Ever considered the sea?
I heard you had to be strong
Why not float around with me?
It won't take you so long

You can go where I'm at
You can hang around with me
And a few good men will go where they all
Where they all not be
And a few good mothers go for what they,
What they all not teach

And I long for a touch or reminder of us but,
But it must not be

And a few strong branches over water
reach for what they all not reach

I hope your mother knows where it is you have been
I hope your mother knows what it is you have seen
She'd be so proud

NATURE OF DUST 

It's the nature of dust, that is all about us
It's all about me, and it's all about love
And that's a dangerous mix if you don't get it right
And it'll come and get you in the dead of the night
It's a dangerous mix if you don't get it right
And it'll come and get you in the dead of the night
And when they leave, and they do
Oh it's bad, oh it's bad

It's the nature of dust, that is all about us
It's all about me, and it's all about love
And that's a dangerous mix if you don't get it right
And it'll come and get you in the dead of the night
Oh it's a dangerous mix if you don't get it right
And it'll come and get you and take your life
And when they leave, oh and they do
Oh it's bad, oh it's bad
Oh it's bad
