Beth Orton - Stolen Car Lyrics
You walked into my house last night.I couldnt help but noticeA light that was long gone still burning strong.You were sitting,Your fingers like fuses.Your eyes were cinnamon.You said you stand for every known abuseThat was ever threatened to anyone but you.And why should I know better by nowWhen Im old enough not to?While every line speaks the language of loveIt never held the meaning I was thinking of.And I cant decide over right or wrong.I guess sometimes you need the place where you belongSome may sing the wrong words to the wrong melodiesIts little things like this that matter to me.Others feel that you should standFor every known abuse to handAnd all the things that they could never see.You said you stoodFor every known abuse that was ever promised to anyone like you.Dont you wish you knew better by nowWhen youre old enough not to?When every line speaks the language of love,It never held the meaning I was thinking of.And I cant decide over right or wrong.You left the feeling that I just do not belong.Do not belong x8One drink too manyAnd a joke gone too farI see a face drive like a stolen car.Gets harder to hideWhen youre hitching a rideHarder to hide what you really saw.Oh, yeah, you standFor every known abuse that Ive ever seen my way through.Dont I wish I knew better by now?Well I think Im starting to.When every line speaks the language of loveIt never held the meaning I was thinking of.And Ive lost the line between right or wrong.I just want to find the place where I belong.Why should you know better by now,When youre old enough not to?I wish I knew better by now,When Im old enough not to.
