歌曲歌詞
We Almost Got It Together - Tanita Tikaram
We almost got it together
And Ill be your favourite thing
Stand by the river with hard-luck eyes
And Ill just be open and sing
I was only trying to surprise
I wish I was like the frog-princess
And Id never tell you lies
And down by the soil of the hard-life
They like to greet us with smiles
They like to tell us their good hostess
Had travelled a million miles
But you'd like it written closer
Yes you'd like it written pure
If I told you this -
Would you miss my kiss
No - you'd come right back for more
Oh Id like to be
What I want to be
But you want to carry on
But you need to take
What you have to take
But Ill still be here when you're gone
And theres a light by your window
And Id like to capture you by there
And Id like to hold you for all to see
But they don't really care
And if I said you're no peccadillo
Yes I said you're a major thing
Would you stand by me
At the corner dock
And say yes this girl is the swing
Oh Id like to be
What I want to be
But you want to carry on
But you need to take
What you have to take
But Ill still be here when you're gone
And Id like another cue
Thats why I strain to see
And Id like the best in you
Cos you write the best in me
They were sure that Id be burning
Yes -
So their tart swerve to here might be
But if I said you're gold inside
Yes and if you were true to me
Would you hang around with that creepy smile
And crawl home back to me
Oh Id like to be
What I want to be
But you want to carry on
But you need to take
What you have to take
But Ill still be here when you're gone
