So what if I was just a painter |
|
painting houses on the rich blue coast? |
|
Would you ever try to leave me |
|
for somebody who deserves you most? |
|
'Cause darling I am just a painter. |
|
I'm painting houses for the rich old folks. |
|
I'm gonna make a million dollars, |
|
'cause nobody's gonna steal you, no, |
|
For diamonds and gold. |
|
For diamonds and gold. |
|
'Cause I've broken bones for you, and for you only. |
|
I make money but we just can't keep this home. |
|
Give me your heart and your hand and we can run! |
|
We can run, we can run baby, run now. |
|
We can run baby, run. |
|
She's like a bullet through an ocean, |
|
I still remember how you moved so slow. |
|
You tried to kill me with a shotgun. |
|
Bang! Now we're even |
|
We don't stop till someone's bleeding. |
|
(We don't stop till someone's bleeding) |
|
'Cause I've broken bones for you, and for you only. |
|
I make money but we just can't keep this home. |
|
Give me your heart and your hand and we can run! |
|
We can run, we can run baby, run now. |
|
We can run baby, run baby, you're my hope. |
|
Permanently yours. |
|
Sometimes the moon looks brighter than the sun. |
|
As times like this run up my wrist, |
|
she hates all of the guts and blood. |
|
Splash around with me while we move like flames on burning sheets. |
|
And your doctor won't stop calling me her medication. |
|
But baby no, sometimes things don't work out the way we planned. |
|
To live is just to fall asleep, to die is to awaken. |
|
Maybe we're meant to lose the ones we love, |
|
but I'll fight for you till then. |
|
And if they stole you from me, |
|
on my arm there's a tattoo of your name. |
|
I've broken bones for you, and for you only. |
|
I make money, but fuck money we want love. |
|
Give me your heart and your hand and we can run! |
