Paolo
Nutini - Autumn
Autumn leaves under frozen
souls,
Hungry hands turing soft
and old,
My hero crying as we
stood out their in the cold,
Like these autumn leaves
I dont have nothing to hold.
Handsome smiles wearing
handsome shoes,
Too young to say, though
I swear he knew,
And i hear him singing
while he sits there in his chair,
While these autumn leaves
float around everywhere.
And I look at you, and
I see me,
Making noise so restlessly,
But now its quiet and
I can hear you sing,
'My little fish dont
cry, my little fish dont cry.'
Autumn leaves how fading
now,
That smile that ive lost,
well ive found some how,
Because you still live
on in my fathers eyes,
These autumn leaves,
all these autumn leave, all these autumn leaves are yours tonite.
Mmmmmmm....
Jenny Don'T
Be Hasty
You said you'd marry
me if i was 23
but i'm one that you
can't see if i'm only 18
tell me who made these
rules
obviously not you
who are you answering
to?
oh, jenny don't be hasty
no, don't treat me like
a baby
let me take you where
you'll let me
because leaving just
upsets me
I'll be around again to
see these other men
that are more adequate
in the age department
i did not think you cared.
there'd be no problems
here
but now you're looking
at me like you're disgusted
then i'm definitely waiting
for you to smile and change your mind
then i'll say i'm sorry
and i'll wrap my arms 'round your body
i really hope that you
forgive in a hurry
and don't just ask me
to leave
oh, jenny don't be hasty
no, don't treat me like
a baby
let me take you where
you'll let me
because leaving just
upsets me
oh, jenny you are crazy!
first i'm perfect, then
i'm lazy
and i was calling you
my baby
now it sounds like you
just left me
and it kills me!
Rewind
Pickin up the pieces
Of the wreck you went
and left
And i'm dealing with
dilemmas
In my not-so-stressful
life
And i'm drinking stronger
spirits
I made my home here on
the floor
And i'm losing all ambition
I'm a ghost
And i'm going all out
And i'm thinking you're
just as bad
No sleeping at night
But i'm going from bar
to bar
Why can't we just rewind
Why can't we just rewind
Why can't we just rewind
Oh remember at 16
Oh the crazy drunken
night we had
When i kissed you in
the hallway
Then i took you straight
to bed
Well 2 years on
And i'm still that same
boy i was
No sleeping at night
But i'm going from bar
to bar
Why can't we just rewind
Why can't we just rewind
Why can't we just rewind
oh
No sleeping at night
But i'm going from bar
to bar
Why can't we just rewind
Why can't we just rewind
Why can't we just rewind
oh
You might blame it on
me
But you persisted that
we fold
Wiped your hands of me
And said you needed more,
more, more
And i'm not sleeping at
night
But i'm going from bar
to bar
Why can't we just rewind
Why can't we just rewind
Why can't we just rewind
oh
And i'm not sleeping at
night
But i'm going from bar
to bar
Why can't we just rewind
Why can't we just rewind
Why can't we just rewind
oh
Wo woah woah woah
Wo woah woah woah
Wo wo woah
Can't we just rewind
Last Request
Slow down, lie down
Remember it's just you
and me
Don't sell out, bow out
Remember how this used
to be
I just want you to know
something, is that alright?
Baby let's get closer,
tonight
(CHORUS)
Grant my last request
and just let me hold you, don't shrug your shoulders
Lay down beside me
Sure I can accept that
we're going nowhere
But one last time let's
go there
Lay down beside me, ohhh
I've found that I'm bound
to wander down that long way road, ohhh
And I realise all about
your lies,
But I'm no wiser than
the fool that I was before.
I just want you to know
something, is that alright?
Baby let's get closer,
tonight.
(CHORUS)
Baby, baby, baby
Tell me how can, how
can this be wrong?
(CHORUS) X2
ooohhhh wohhhhohhh, yeah
Lay down beside me
One last time let's go
there,
Lay down beside me.
Million Faces
Oh the phone you know
it never stops, it's the last thing I hear at night
and the first thing I
hear in the morning.
and as I start to let
it burn my head, you slowly creep into bed
and i'm done talking
you say you know how
i'm feeling, I just need to try to settle down
Oh a million faces pass
my way
Oh they're all the same,
nothing seem to change anytime I look around
Oh who knows just what
the future holds
all I want to know is
if it's with you
Tired as hell and falling
up the stairs, filled with a thousand cares as you walk out from the bedroom
though it feels like
all my fire has gone, you just turn me on
can't believe how much
I want you
you say you know how
i'm feeling, I just need to try to settle down
Oh a million faces pass
my way
Oh they're all the same,
nothing seem to change anytime I look around
Oh who knows just what
the future holds
all I want to know is
if it's with you
we're distracted by the
hard times, and the troubles that we make
let us throw them in
the ocean, let it wash our cares away
oh the phone you know
it never stops, it's the last thing I hear at night
and the first thing in
the morning
Oh a million faces pass
my way
Oh they're all the same,
nothing seem to change anytime I look around
Oh who knows just what
the future holds
all I want to know is
if it's with you
we're distracted by the
hard times, and the troubles that we make
let us throw them in
the ocean, let it wash our cares away
oh the phone you know
it never stops, it's the last thing I hear at night
and the first thing in
the morning
let it wash our cares
away, let it wash our cares away...
These Streets
Cross the border,
Into the big bad world
where it takes you 'bout
an hour
just to cross the road
just to stumble across
another poor old soul from
The dreary old lanes
to the high-street madness
I fight with my brain
to believe my eyes
and it's harder than
you think
to delay the sadness
that creeps up my spine
and haunts me through
the night
and life is good and
the girls are gorgeuos
suddenly the air smells
much greener now
and I'm wondering 'round
with a half pack of cigarettes
searching for the change
that I've lost somehow
These streets have too
many names for me
I'm used to Glenfield
road and spending my time down in Orchy
I'll get used to this
eventually
I know, I know
where'd the days go? When
all we did was play
And the stress that we
were under wasn't stress at all
just a run and a jump
into a harmless fall from
walking by a high-rise
to a landmark square
you see millions of people
with millions of cares
And I struggle to the
train to make my way home
I look at the people
as they sit there alone
Life is good, and the
sun is shining
Everybody floods to their
ideal place
And the children all
smile as a boat shuffled by them
Trying to pretend that
they've got som space
These streets have too
many names for me
I'm used to Glenfield
road and spending my time down in Orchy
I'll get used to this
eventually
I know, I know
These streets have too
many names for me
I'm used to Glenfield
road and spending my time down in Orchy
I'll get used to this
eventually
I know, I know
Life is good, and the
girls are gorgeous
suddenly the air smells
much greener now
and I'm wondering 'round
with a half pack of cigarettes
searching for the change
that I've lost somehow
These streets have too
many names for me
I'm used to Glenfield
road and spending my time down in Orchy
I'll get used to this
eventually
I know, I know
These streets have too
many names for me
I'm used to Glenfield
road and spending my time down in our Orchy
I'll get used to this
eventually
I know, I know
