Lyrics Elaine - The Young Knives

Elaine

Elaine, Elaine, Elaine, Elaine, Hello
Please don’t see my faults and make me go
I was only trying to be nice
Only, only, only trying to be as sweet as spice
Excuse this rude awakening, it’s my weakness can’t you see?
Let’s charter a day cruiser and get married out at sea
I’ll try to keep it simple so that you can understand
The moon is in the porthole where the water meets the land
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine, Elaine, Hello
Please don’t see my faults and make me go
I was only trying to be nice
(be nice, show you I love you,)
Only, only, only trying to be as sweet as spice
Like a spider you consume me, and I’m caught up in your web
Now is the time to say you’re mine, I’m dangling by a thread
I’m always optimistic but I think you’ve gone too far
I may have overstated just how great I think you are
Elaine, Elaine, Elaine, Elaine, Hello
Please don’t see my faults and make me go
I was only trying to be nice
Only, only, only trying to be as sweet as spice
La la la, la la la la la, la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la la,
la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la la,
la la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la la (echo to fade out)
