Hold Me Tight (like A Gun) Lyrics

Hold me tight, like a gun And please dont tell me we´ve already seen enough sun Cos we both know, that aint true Thats just something that we gotta do... I rest my head in my hands Dont want to listen so I stick my head into the sand You stick around and count your toes When we´re together nothing goes I think about this girl I saw Who had tears painted on her cheeks and did this monolouge And she was good bu we all laughed Now I guess I feel ashamed And about this friend who used to care He signed up and the military cut his hair He moved away but did not complain He said: When I´ts over I´ll come back again I remember speed and the lights were red And Lucy in the sky was echoing through my head You just got the card and we raced the streets I felt my weight against the seat. The prettiest girl I ever saw She said this town brought her down and it made her bored She sold jeans in this clothing store So I bought two pairs I could not afford And Mr Polaroid and Mr Tambourine and all other teachers who never quite belived in me They stood and stared, I shook my head But it wasn´t like I ever cared I think of when we met, I felt alone Seems like I´ve spent half my life talking to you on the phone All things you had to do, they made you sigh I said all we have to do is die And I told you ´bout this time I flew When me and Johnny were going down to Liverpool And we almoust crashed It just made me appriciate my life And I´ll remember you when the wind comes in we used to hate the smell of coffee in the morning You got nothing to do but You know you cant move until this town is through with you So hold me tight like a gun And please dont tell me we´ve already seen enough sun Cos we both know that it´s alright It´s the stuff that get us through the night
