Lyrics

Take the easy way out and I'll meet you at my life
Making intimacy is an art form of mine
Say hello, say goodbye, say whatever I'm feeling
Fingers crossed, there's no point to these lies
Cause you're getting nothing, cause everything's lies
Don't be scared in the morning
Just be scared for tonight
Lonely girls live for longing
They wish, they dream
Hanging out of my window at dawn at the weekend
Onion bhajis, the Byrds, cherryade, it's alright
These are times I can't see now where we are together
It's not crass, I'm not talking of doves
It's just I'm afraid I forgot what I love
Don't be scared in the morning
Just be scared for tonight
Lonely girls live for longing
They wish and they dream but to live they must fly
No, I won't be afraid and I'll die if you're right
I've had friends who are shy
But a token appears by my head anymore
Silver coins land on the floor
I don't know if you're right or I'm wrong, oh, I don't care
Let's go out for the night, get some chips in the car
Tell me what you've been reading, the day and the TV
Make me laugh for a while when I fret
Then make me remember, I cannot forget
Don't be scared in the morning
Just be scared for tonight
Lonely girls live for longing
They wish and they dream but to live they must fly
No, I won't be afraid and I'll die if you're right
I've had friends who are shy
But a totem appears by my head anymore
Silver coins land on the floor
