Noah Gundersen, Whitney Ballen - Audrey Hepburn lyrics
[Noah Gundersen, Whitney Ballen - Audrey Hepburn lyrics]
Megan, I have worn you like
A blanket in the cold
Shivering on your barstool
Soaked down to the bone
Breaking your attention from across
A crowded room
Where you pour expensive poison for
Rich boys to consume
Catching every smile in the
Corners of your mouth
You were empty of the future
Unaware of doubt
As you danced around the counter
With your lips all painted red
Threw your arms around me and
Got burned into my head
First time that I saw you
You were walking up my street
Hours after midnight, man
You must have been insane
To come and meet some stranger in
The middle of the night
And go speeding through the darkness on
The back of his bike
But we rode together in the wind
Vanished in a dream
Where the nights went on forever
The last stand of something free
There was a warning you neglected to receive
From your beloved Audrey Hepburn
Never love a wild thing
I was only looking for shelter from the storm
I said I couldn't stay
But then I stayed a little more
Tie me down, Delilah
Just please don't cut my hair
Love is not a contract
It's a burden we share
Darren took that fifth of Wild
Turkey from your shelf
Left a twenty on the table
Went to party somewhere else
As I got drunk and threw up
In your bathroom down the hall
Tripped and broke the mirror that
Was leaned against your wall
But you didn't get angry
You just laughed and shook your head
Threw back the covers and told
Me "Come to bed" underneath your blankets
You were too involved to see
There were seven shards of bad luck
And they all looked like me
A blanket in the cold
Shivering on your barstool
Soaked down to the bone
Breaking your attention from across
A crowded room
Where you pour expensive poison for
Rich boys to consume
Catching every smile in the
Corners of your mouth
You were empty of the future
Unaware of doubt
As you danced around the counter
With your lips all painted red
Threw your arms around me and
Got burned into my head
First time that I saw you
You were walking up my street
Hours after midnight, man
You must have been insane
To come and meet some stranger in
The middle of the night
And go speeding through the darkness on
The back of his bike
But we rode together in the wind
Vanished in a dream
Where the nights went on forever
The last stand of something free
There was a warning you neglected to receive
From your beloved Audrey Hepburn
Never love a wild thing
I was only looking for shelter from the storm
I said I couldn't stay
But then I stayed a little more
Tie me down, Delilah
Just please don't cut my hair
Love is not a contract
It's a burden we share
Darren took that fifth of Wild
Turkey from your shelf
Left a twenty on the table
Went to party somewhere else
As I got drunk and threw up
In your bathroom down the hall
Tripped and broke the mirror that
Was leaned against your wall
But you didn't get angry
You just laughed and shook your head
Threw back the covers and told
Me "Come to bed" underneath your blankets
You were too involved to see
There were seven shards of bad luck
And they all looked like me
