Damien Rice - Cheers darlin'


Cheers darlin'
Here's to you and your lover boy
Cheers darlin' I got years to wait around for you
 Cheers darlin' I've got your wedding bells in my ear
Cheers darlin' You give me three cigarettes to smoke my tears away
And I die when you mention his name
And I lied, I should have kissed you
When we were running in the rain
 What am I darlin'?
 A whisper in your ear?
A piece of your cake?
What am I, darlin?
The boy you can fear?
Or your biggest mistake?
 Cheers darlin'
Here's to you and your lover man
Cheers darlin'
 I just hang around and eat from a can
 Cheers darlin' I got a ribbon of green on my guitar
 Cheers darlin'
I got a beauty queen
To sit not very far from me
 I die when he comes around
To take you home
 I'm too shy I should have kissed you when we were alone
 What am I darlin'?
A whisper in your ear?
 A piece of your cake?
 What am I, darlin?
The boy you can fear?
 Or your biggest mistake?
 Oh what am I?
What am I darlin'?
 I got years to wait...

Edie Brickell & New Bohemians - What I Am

I'm not aware of too many things I know what I know, if you know what I mean Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box Religion is the smile on a dog I'm not aware of too many things I know what I know, if you know what I mean, d-doo yeah Shove me in the shallow waters Before I get too deep What I am is what I am Are you what you are or what? What I am is what I am Are you what you are, or? Oh, I'm not aware of too many things I know what I know, if you know what I mean Philosophy is a walk on the slippery rocks Religion is a light in the fog I'm not aware of too many things I know what I know, if you know what I mean, d-doo yeah

NIPPY

Nippy    She is my iceberg. I have only glimpsed a sneak peek while she hides herself beneath I tell her she is sinking Doing everything I can to thaw the frost on her lips g ives me cracks no one can see as  I watch my glacial queen drift away  in unpredictable seas away from me... Joy4no1

The Skyliners- Since I Don't Have You

I don't have plans and schemes And I don't have hopes and dreams I don't have anything Since I don't have you I don't have fond desires And I don't have happy hours I don't have anything Since I don't have you I don't have happiness, and I guess I never will again When you walked out on me In walked old misery And he's been here since then I don't have love to share And I don't have one who cares I don't have anything Since I don't have You, you, you, you You, you, you, you You, you, you, you (You) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Skyliner
