Lyrics
Sex Tonight
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.
Ellen of Troy was the kind of girl
Who really had it all.
Not a care in the world, but her head was turned,
And forever changed.
She said
One love is lost, but another is found.
So just take the keys and let’s just go,
Birds fly south.
Nothing richer, gained,
It’s all about love, so I’d love to play,
I’d love to play.
She said
I dotted my eyes and I cross my teeth,
Had time for friends when they needed me.
I’m trying to make sense and sense these things,
Try to live how I believe.
And of course I leave things behind
That I’ll regret.
But this time enough for new things yet,
For new things yet.
When the dusk covers the sun
No new hope for is in turn,
Will you turn and stay?
Nothing richer, gained,
It was all for love, so love is to blame,
Love is to blame, love is to blame,
Love is to blame, love is to blame,
Love is to blame, love is to blame.
When the dusk covers the sun
No new hope for is in turn,
Will you turn and stay?
Nothing richer, gained,
It was all for love, so love is to blame,
Love is to blame, love is to blame,
Love is to blame, love is to blame,
Love is to blame, love is to blame.
When the dusk covers the sun
No new hope for is in turn,
Will you turn and stay?
Nothing richer, gained,
It was all for love, so love is to blame,
Love is to blame, love is to blame,
Love is to blame, love is to blame,
Love is to blame, love is to blame.
