The Start of Something (Demo) Lyrics

This time of night I could call you up

I'd get angry with athletic ease

Break questions down in twos and threes

And if I die clutching your photograph

Don't call me boring, it's just 'cause I like you

Oh take me on back, take me on back and take me back

To the place where I could feel your heart

Is this the end or just the start

Of something really, really beautiful

Wrapped up and disguised as

Something really, really ugly, won't you

Come by and see me, I'm a love letter away

I'd break your name before I'd say

I really love you, love you

I don't care if you saw, I watched every inch of film

Flash across your Roman features

And I loved it, loved, no I don't care if

You think I'm eager to shut your eyes

Well, I'm sorry everybody knows

You can't break me with your gutter prose

Would you believe it, she sent me a letter

The ring it nearly weighs her down

She's got another boy, oh boy

Take me on back, take me on back oh read my lips

Poetry is not a luxury, it's how I'll break this home

And when I'm really ill, oh won't cradle me

Man is not a noble animal but maybe woman is

Remember, I heard you

Inside your room you said you'd never really live

'Till your back's against the wall

Oh did you really mean it?

Oh I never break my gaze just to see this scar

Reflected in your eyes, oh call the cops I'm burning

I break the law once every week to feel your touch

Oh what's a book to you in bed, do you feel better, older?

This just makes me ill, your name is dripping from my pen

But still you're not around to curse, oh God I'll

Drop the gun now, I'm in love with you

Marianne let the ghosts sleep tonight

Marianne let's the ghosts sleep just

Cut your hair and burn the past

Marianne let the ghosts sleep tonight

Marianne let the ghosts sleep just

Cut your hair and burn the past

Marianne let the ghosts sleep tonight

Oh Marianne let the ghosts sleep

I'll cut your hair and burn the past

Marianne let the ghosts sleep tonight

Marianne let the ghosts sleep just

Cut your hair and burn the past away
