lyrics

Your time is sinking in your hand,
You’ve just the lonely night to wear,
You’re trying hard to understate your purposes,
Don’t go.

You turn on each and every one,
You say you’re going out to see,
The stars have never had to hide their purposes,
Don’t go.

They say it’s only vanity,
But I know, you keep me running, dear.
It’s only old man fantasy,
But I know you keep me running, dear.
You keep me away from here.

I’m playing solo you can’t hear,
The honey finds me in the cove,
I’m multiplying all the spoils they give to me,
Don’t go.

Deep in the St. Charles Sound,
A fiery island to ourselves
A thousand replicas of my girl Tiffany,
Don’t go.

They say it’s only vanity,
But I know, you keep me running, dear.
It’s only younger fantasy,
But I know you keep me running, dear.
I owe you any sanity,
But I know, you keep me running, dear.
I know it’s all in vanity,
But I know you keep me running, dear.
You keep me away from here.
