Molasses

You are made of sugar, milk and molasses

So, little darlin', you attract all the bees

You are the gazer, you are the attraction

It takes a little vanity to know what it means

I know it 'cause you wrote it down a hundred times

But you say that you're doin' just fine

Say there's something better

But today, there is a cold moon rising

And you wanted something better

But tonight, tonight you're giving up

I asked a question, give me an answer

You'll say the word, and I will disappear

You're running fast, but you can run faster

Your wheels to the dirt, gonna make it clear

I know it 'cause you wrote it down a hundred times

But you say that you're doin' just fine

Say there's something better

But today, there is a cold moon rising

And you wanted something better

But tonight, you know you'll never find it

Say there's something better

But today, there is a cold moon rising

You wanted something better

But tonight, tonight you're giving darkness

And you can't hear me

I will try to draw you near me

But in the morning, you will wake up alone

When your body breaks

Even the hummingbirds will feel the earthquake

You'll sing a song of your heart's complaints

Sing it loud

Sing it clear

Oh, sing so I can hear you

Then sing it soft in my ear

Take it up

Or take out, put me down

In the grand, I'll go anywhere with you

Say there's something better

You don't see it, you won't find it

Say there's something better

You're behind it but you won't get it

La da da, la da da

La da da, la da da

Say there's something better

But today, there is a cold moon rising

And you wanted something better

But tonight, you know you'll never find it

La da da, la da da

La da da, la da da

Say there's something better

You don't see it, you won't find it

Say there's something better

You're behind it but you won't get it
