Liz Phair - Somebody`S Miracle (2005) by Liz Phair (보컬) on maniadb.com

I saw John, he looked so sad
I want you to know that I feel bad for not making our dreams come true.
We had so many dreams, me and you.
I want you to know I love you.
You're my favorite thing from the past,
And all of those nights we spent together,
I never had such a blast....

Anyone could tell you were my instrument, he said, I understand you.
You wanna play me.
Everything about us had an innocence, but everything around us was changing

It's hard to believe so much happened so fast
Remember the way we always left
While I'm thinking of the things you do
We were kings of the world, me and you
I wish it has stayed like that forever
But everyone was dropping off like flowers
I had so many friends in rehab,
A couple who practically died

Anyone could tell you were my instrument, you said, I understand you.
You wanna play me.
Everything about us had an innocence, but everything around us was changing

And my mistake was being already married.
I wanna make a leap of innocence to you.

I guess when you were living the high life
It's one of those things that just can't last
Kind of like love in California
But I never had such a blast

Anyone could tell you were my instrument, you said, I understand you.
You wanna play me.
Everything about us had an innocence, but everything around us was changing

My mistake is thinking I'd already made it.
I wanna make a leap of innocence
My mistake is thinking you and I can change it.
I wanna make a leap of innocence to you

Oh my look at you
The wide-eyed ingenue
See me coming
Whisper something
Who are you
Looking through the glass at me
Like your gonna make it happen
Let me tell you something true
You know its just the same old story

Stars rise and
Stars fall
But the ones that shine the brighest aren't stars at all
There are the planets just like us
And from big to small
We all shine shine shine
We all shine

Raise the red flag
See your hot young available
Spend their money
Chase their honey
Who are you
boogaloo
We've seen ten of you
Just this morning
At least as pretty too
You know it just the same old story

Stars rise and
Stars fall
But the ones that shine the brighest aren't stars at all
There are the planets just like us
And from big to small
We all shine shine shine
We all shine shine shine
We all shine

Everybody wants to go far
Don't be such a hog in the spotlight
Try to see how precious you are
And if you catch that wave it can be death defying

...And if you catch that wave
It can be death defying
Blinded by the flash.
You're in a fashion entertainment affiliated.
Listener rated pamplona race
To see who makes it to the Grammys....

Well you better start running
The bulls are coming
You know its just the same old story

Stars rise and
Stars fall
But the ones that the shine the brighest aren't stars at all
There the planets just like us
And from big to small
We all shine shine shine

Stars rise and
Stars fall
But the ones that the shine the brighest aren't stars at all
There the planets just like us
And from big to small

We all shine shine shine
We all shine shine shine
We all shine
Shine shine shine
We all shine shine shine
We all shine shine shine
We all shine
shine shine shine
We all shine shine shine
We all shine shine shine
We all shine
Shine shine shine
We all shine shine shine
We all shine shine shine

I'm so far, so far away from it now
That it seems like I may never know how
People stay in love for half of their lives
It's a secret they keep between husbands and wives

Baby, There goes somebody's miracle
Walking down the street
There goes some other fairy tale
I wish it could happen to me
But I look at myself
Wonderin' if I'm just too weak
To have such faith in myself

Once upon a time I was so restless in love
When things we're fine, I changed my mind just because
Now I see how wrong and reckless I've been
Each frog has a prince just waiting inside of him

Baby, There goes somebody's miracle
Walking down the street
There goes some other fairy tale
I wish it could happen to me
But I look at myself, and I think what the hell
Maybe I'm just too naive
To have such faith in myself
You know I'm praying for it

But the queen, she likes to sit on her throne
Doesn't mean you two are never alone
It's just love has needs that love only knows
Watch a couple stay close, It's like the bloom of a rose

Baby, There goes somebody's miracle
Walking down the street
There goes some other fairy tale
I wish it could happen to me
There goes somebody's miracle
Walking down the street
There goes some other fairy tale

I never cry out loud, I
I keep my tears to myself
But I woke up one day and I found my life had left me for someone else
I, I guess it must be unhappy with me

Baby, There goes somebody's miracle
Walking down the street
There goes some other fairy tale
I wish it could happen to me
But I look at myself
Wondering if I'm just too weak
To have such faith in myself
You know I'm praying for it
You know I'm praying for it
You know I'm praying for it

I've got my own thing
Feel it, it is strong
As short as people think
But, really, it is long

I don't have to wait for a miracle
They say I'm pretty as a song
I don't have to save for a rainy day
I know that something comes along, it always comes along

Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you're swingin' this way, too
Boy, I do

I've got my own thing
Feel it in a room
Everybody changed
When I do what I do 'cause I do what I do

I don't have to say what I'm thinking, 'cause
Everyone's radio is on, and they've heard my latest song
Don't have to stand there with a drink because
They say that we would get along, so let's just get along

Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you're swingin' this way, too
Boy, I do

I know you're not like other guys
I don't expect you to normalize
I won't get into what you do
Because I'm bettin', bettin', bettin', bettin', bettin' all my money on you

Don't have to wait for a miracle
They say I'm pretty as a song, they've heard my latest song
You don't have to stand there with a drink because
I know that we would get along, so let's just get along

Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you're swingin' this way, too
Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you're swingin' this way, too
Boy, I do

Pretty girl, there she goes
Pretty girl, there she goes
Pretty girl, there she goes
Pretty girl, there she goes
Pretty girl, there she goes
Pretty girl, there she goes

Don't know where we'll be tomorrow
But we'll beg and borrow everything we need
You, standing next to me, Where I want to be
Is anywhere you are

Some day if we never said it
We might live to regret it
Come on, don't let us slip away in a daze

You can count on my love
An umbrella when it's raining
When you feel your hope is fading
You can count on my love

Blue eyes, bluer than the blue sky
Smiling down like sunshine
Everywhere you are
For you, I only want the best
You only have to ask
And I'll be there for you

Some day if we never said it
We might live to regret it
Come on, don't let us fade away in a haze

You can count on my love
An umbrella when it's raining
When you feel your hope is fading
You can count on my love
With me you'll feel protected
And you'll never be rejected
You can count on my love

You go through your whole life waiting
But you don't know what you're waiting for
One day you'll meet somebody
And your whole world now is an open door

You can count on my love
You can count on my love
An umbrella when it's raining
When you feel your hope is fading
You can count on my love
With me you'll feel protected
And you'll never be rejected
When you need a friend to lean on
You know you never need a reason
To count on my love
Count on my love
You can count of my love

You fall hard, you fall deep
Even when you're awake, you look half asleep
Do you even know what you did last summer?
Wandering around that dumb and blind
With the girls all hanging around you

Is that a no or yes?
We'll have to guess
Mysterious eyes let you see what you want
Half the time you didn't know any better, but half the time you did
Hanging around like tomorrow doesn't apply to you

Lazy dreamer
You never want to rise
Seven in between us you're almost paralyzed
Makes no difference to you the sun shining in your eyes
Waiting for you they don't even realize

I bet it makes you laugh
Watching me work so hard to reach you
You never gave a damn
About all of those things I did to please you

All that you wanted, you found somewhere else
And nothing could drag you away from yourself

Do you really know me at all?
Would you take the time to catch me if I fall?
Are you ever gonna be that real to me?
Everything to me

Lucky I've been through hell
Backroads and shortcuts I know them well
Baby just stick with me
We'll make it together, just wait and see

Do you really know me at all?
Would you take the time to catch me if I fall?
Are you ever gonna be that real to me?
Everything to me

The walls they close in
The air it goes out
We're left with nothing but a shadow of doubt
Nobody talks, no one is here
It's just you and me

Do you really know me at all?
Would you take the time to catch me if I fall?
Are you ever gonna be that real to me?
Everything to me

Do you really know me at all?
Would you take the time to catch me if I fall?
Are you ever gonna be that real to me?
Everything to me

I bet it makes you laugh
Watching me work so hard to reach you

I see the things you do
Do you think I wander through half-blind?
I see the things you hide
The fear you have inside is nothing new
But I would never want to find out everything about you

Because I would never want to find out
What I thought wasn't true

Your mind is a place
I don't need to embrace
But what you've got on your heart
Is enough for me to start breaking through
And closer to you
Closer to you

I love you as you are
Near and not too far out of you
I love the way you walk
To hear it when you talk like you do

But I would never want to choose
What I like best about you

Because I would never want to spoil that mystery
With a clue

Your mind is a place
I don't need to embrace
But what you've got in your heart
Is enough for me to start
With enough holes in my soul
I don't need to rock and roll to stay in tune
And be open to you
Open to you

Oh the obviousness of all those Frustrating clues
They wander all around
Black and white, no sound, no improvements

But I see something like TV
With a smell and a choice

When I feel yours and my heart beating
With the wealth of the universe
Your mind is a place
I don't need to embrace
What you've got in your heart
Is enough for me to start
Making your happiness my own
Open up and let me show what I can do
When I am closer to you
Closer to you

I'm walking down in the basement
I'm leaning on the washing machine
I'm reaching back through a hole in the wall's insulation
I'm pulling out a bottle of vodka
Replacing that with a pint of Jim Bean
I'm lying down on the floor until I feel better

It's morning and I pour myself coffee
I drink it til the kitchen stops shaking
I'm backing out of the driveway
And into creation

And the loving spirit that follows me
Watching helplessly, will always forgive me

Oh, I want to die alone
With my sympathy beside me
I want to bring down all those demons who drank with me
Feasting bleed through me
On my desperation

I hide all the bottles in places
They find and confront me with pain in their eyes
And I promise that I'll make some changes

But reaching back it occurs to me
There will always be some kind of crisis for me

Oh, I want to die alone
With my sympathy beside me
I want to bring back all those moments they stole from me
In my reverie
Darkening days end

Oh, I want to die alone
With my memories inside me
I want to live that life
When I could say people had faith in me
I still see that guy in my memory

Oh, I want to die alone
With my sympathy beside me
I want to bring down all those people who drank with me
Watching happily
My humiliation

If you ask me why I lie to you
I can tell you I don't know myself
Its amazingly dishonest
But I'd have to recognize it
As part of myself

Straighten up
Why can't you straighten up
I've heard you tell me this
So many times
It doesn't even stick

I get it all the time
I get it all the time
You know I love to make
A joke of it

And if you ask me why I hurt you
I don't understand it
I can't help myself
Its a special combination
Of preditory instinct
And simple ill will

I would give some thought to it
If I thought that it might do me
Some good
Some good

Straighten up
Why can't you straighten up
You always say I'll lose
Control of it
And thirty is not too old

Well momma I would give some thought to it
If I thought that it might do me
Some good
Some good
Some good
Some good

Yeah, got a pretty young face
And a pretty old soul, got a pretty old soul
And yeah, you know you've got what it takes
But you're never too cold, you're never too cold

And I want to get lost tonight with you
Let me know if it's alright that I do
Cause I want to get lost tonight with you
What you've got is what i'm running to

Yeah, you've heard it all before
But this time it's true, this time it's true
Yeah, I'm not that kind of girl
But I could be for you, I could be for you

And I want to get lost tonight with you
Let me know if it's alright that I do
Cause I want to get lost tonight with you
What you've got is what I'm running to

Wouldn't you know there's a blackout tonight
We're stuck here with nothing to do
But lean out the window and find paradise
We've both got nothing to lose

And I want to get lost tonight with you
Let me know if it's alright if I do
Cause I want to get lost tonight with you
What you've got is what I'm running to

They can say what they want
But I don't hear thing cause
They can't read my thoughts
Or the secrets between
All of this time you where apart of me
Shining like a star in my galaxy

And I reach out trusting you there
Its like walking on a high wire into thin air
And I'm waking up to the dream
Its like bouncing so high on a trampoline
And I know that there's one thing
Between me and nothing
Baby, you are that one thing that pulls me through
So I'm giving it all to you
Giving it all to you

Could it be you and me
Can't stop thinking about
All of the crazy possibilities
I don't want to keep my feelings locked inside
Everytime I see you you just blow my mind

And I reach out trusting you there
Its like walking on a high wire into thin air
And I'm waking up to the dream
Its like bouncing so high on a trampoline
And I know that there's one thing
Between me and nothing
Baby, you are that one thing that pulls me through
So I'm giving it all to you
I'm giving it

Others have tried to get to me
But I see through them eventually
Cause your the only one that I wanna be with
I'm giving it all to you
I'm giving it all

Everytime I see you all my systems align
You explode on my just like a metorite

And I reach out trusting you there
Its like walking on a high wire into thin air
And I'm waking up to the dream
Its like bouncing so high on a trampoline
And I know that there's one thing
Between me and nothing
Baby, you are that one thing that pulls me through
So I'm giving it all to you

I know that there's one thing
I know that there's one thing
Baby you are that something that pulls me trough
So I'm giving it all to you
Giving it all to you

Could it be you and me
Can't stop thinking about
All of the crazy possibilities
