How To Be Good |
I could write the book of you |
And illustrate the pages |
You shouldn’t read it |
I’m the one that you put down, |
It was written in a hurry, |
Slipped through your fingers. |
I do everything I should |
Still got to learn, |
How to be good. |
You got two strong arms I see, |
Can’t you bring them around |
Wrap them around me? |
I lay my storms down at your feet |
Maybe you’ll build a shelter, |
Maybe do my heart work for me. |
Oh, I kick and scream, |
But the job is mine, |
So I’ll stay by the ocean |
You got your own hills to climb. |
I do everything I should |
Still got to learn, |
How to be good. |
You got two strong arms I see, |
Can’t you bring them around |
Wrap them around me? |
And I know that I am full of holes |
Still they let me, see on through to the other side. |
And the southern cross has got you in her sights. |
I do everything I should |
Still got to learn, |
How to be good. |
You got two strong arms I see, |
Can’t you bring them around |
Wrap them around me? |
Gotta wrap 'em around |
Gotta wrap 'em around |
Gotta wrap 'em around me… |
I do everything I should |
Still got to learn, |
How to be good. |
You got two strong arms I see, |
Can’t you bring them around |
Wrap them around me |
