Lyrics
Cherry Baby
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So we got away, for a little while
Everything feels strange
And my boy, he don't look back
When you said
What I needed was to need
It all made sense, all made sense
I stare at the sky through that pane of glass sometimes
Landing wide-eyed into a dream of mine
Trying to stay awake in the age, awake in the age
Awake in the age
So sell my sight
For a price I'd like to think is right
Think I might fight the lightning
Now you see me
Am I ripe for the taking?
Now you don't
A cherry baby you're making
Cherry oh
Everything must go
'Cause we're closing down
I could hesitate
And turn it all around
But now
I believe you when you leave to somewhere else
Somewhere else
Glacier swell, put me under that spell
I'll be the fruit if you'd just treat me well
And I'll try to stay in love with myself, in love with myself
Loving someone else
So sell my sight
For a price I'd like to think is right
Think I might fight the lightning
Now you see me
Am I ripe for the taking?
Now you don't
A cherry baby you're making
Cherry oh
Sell my sight
For a price I'd like to think is right
Think I might fight the lightning
Now you see me
Am I ripe for the taking?
Now you don't
A cherry baby you're making
Cherry oh
Cherry oh
Cherry oh-oh-oh
Cherry oh
Cherry oh-oh-oh
Cherry oh
Cherry oh-oh-oh
