Sticky Fingers - Tongue & Cheek lyrics

We're coming in cheap with
The beast out running
Pretty girl, I think you're stunning
I'd like to take you home
But I fell out my throne
I never had a place to go
The water is free but
The taps stopped running
Pretty girl, I think you're stunning
Just suck it, in tongue and cheek

Because the river runs deep
Well, yes, the river runs deep

I took all my time, I decided to tell
I'd take my own life just to see you in hell
But, I am alive, nobody heard you fell
So I threw you a line
Down a dark wishing well
I heard a noise draw dark aloof
I'm blind but better off than you, my friend
(But, I will need you in the end)
A blur got sharp and loud and true
My mind's made up, I'm here for you
My friend
('Cause you will need me in the end)

'Cause, I will need you in the end
I'll need you in the end

Immortal air in a fresh cool morning
I need to be there when you wake
To the sound of me speaking peace
Put the devil in your sleep
Haunted by the ghost of the man I used to be

Birds fly away into the clouds of unknowing
Titans of Aphrodite
They show not when you're coming
'Cause you suck it in, tongue and cheek

Because the river runs deep
Yes, the river runs deep the river runs deep
With all honesty yes, the river runs deep
But, I'll tell you, my friend
The river runs deep, yeah, oh
