Trailer Park/Central Reservation

Sugar boy its all over now,
Sugar boy its all over now,
Ain't your loving,
But the things that you do,
Listen boy I'm getting tired of you,

Sugar boy what you trying to do,
Well I told you I loved you,
Now what more can I do,
Told you I loved you,
You beat my heart black and blue,
I told you I loved you,
Now what more can I do,
Do you want me to lay down
And die for you.

Sugar boy its all over now,
Sugar boy its all over now,
Went to the doctor,
Told me something was wrong,
Listen girl you shouldn't feel so alone.

Sugar boy what you trying to do,
Well I told you I loved you,
Now what more can I do,
Told you I loved you,
You beat my heart black and blue,
I told you I loved you,
Now what more can I do,
Do you want me to lay down
And die for you.

Lay down and die,
Lay down and die,
Well I'm not gonna lay down and die,
No I'm not gonna lay down and die,
Oh no I won't lay down and die,
Never gonna lay down and die,
Oh no I'm never gonna lay down and die for you,
Oh no I'm never gonna lay down and die for you,
I'm never gonna lay down and die.

You lose it just to find it
And as you walk right by it
You forget how you got there,
And why you never meant to stay.
And I won't watch you waste away.
And I won't fake another day
And if one truth leads you to fly
I still don't believe in your reasons why
I just don't believe in why.

You love her.
You need her
To feel is to believe her.
You know it.
You want it.
You just can't believe you've ot it.
And I can't watch you waste away
And I won't you still to stay.
And if one truth leads you to fight
I still don't believe in your reasons why.
I just don't believe in why.

I couldn't watch you walk away
And not forget it.
I couldn't watch you turn to stone
And just regret it a single day.
Not a single day.

If I lose you
Could you find me?
Or would you walk right by me?
The soul and the spirit
Each have got their own limit.
And I can't waste another second
Living in hell like it's some kind of heaven.
And if one truth leads to another
Then isn't there one I can uncover,
There isn't one I will not discover.

It's the right time.
It's my time.
It's the right time.
It's my time.
It's my turn to discover.

And I won't waste a single second
Living in hell as a nadir of heaven
And if one truth leads you to five,
I still don't believe in your reasons why.

And if one truth leads to another,
Isn't there one we can uncover?
If there isn't one that we cannot discover.
So it's our time.
It's our time to discover.

So much stays unknown till the time has come.
Did you imagine you could ever be so strong,
Then watch your fear just turn into relief?
Your sea of doubt become your own belief?
Though tears don't come to cry some grief away,
The tears will help to keep your need at bay.

So come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.
Come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.

A mother told me just before she died
My mother told me just before she died,
'oh darling, darling, don't you be like me.
You will fall in love with the very first man you meet.'
But mama, mama, some will never know;
The love that you have is still holding my soul.

[Beth Orton & Terry Callier:]
So come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a little while.
Come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.

[Beth Orton:]
You're here just a while

[Terry Callier:]
Here just a while

[Beth Orton:]
So much stays unknown till the time you are strong.
Did you imagine you could ever feel so strong,
And all your pain just turns into relief?
All your doubt becomes your own belief?
Though tears don't come to cry some grief away,
The years will help to keep your need at bay.

[Beth Orton & Terry Callier :]
So come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.
Come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.

So come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.
Come on now, come on now, child.
You're here just a while.

[Beth Orton:]

Ooh, yeah, you know,
You couldn't cause me any harm.
Although, at times, I may get startled,
I'm not alarmed.
I can see your eyes
I know when they're telling me a truth
I can feel the heart,
Especially when it's on the roof
Of my mouth.
There's no right or wrong.
This isn't a test.
And I won't lose my experience.
I won't try
To put it aside.
But it's alright.
You know that it's alright.
's alright.
It's gonna be alright.

It's gonna be alright.

And if I told you,
Would you never know to guess?
Sure, what's the point
When little often means so much less.
I can see for miles.
I know when you're telling me a truth
I can feel my heart,
Especially now.
It's on the roof
Of my mouth
There's no right or wrong.
This isn't a gesture
And I don't use my experience.
I don't try
To let it go by
But it's alright.
You know that it's alright.
It's alright.
It's gonna be alright.

When the devil comes blowing through your door
You'll know there's trouble, and he's coming back for more
You better keep what is precious hidden under the floor
Or you better treat it so good it will never want for more

But looking back in retrospect
Did you ever really get what you'd expect?
Trying to rectify
Got lost a little further
You've been trying to justify
Find out how and where it came

Devil was your angel, but it's not no more
The devil was your angel, when you weren't sure

Do I tempt trouble to break through all these doors
Just to put a face to the voice which always home?
To fight for what is precious, to know what's under the floor
If I could treat it so good, I swear I'd never want for more

But when I found my peace
There was still mistakes
However painfully awaring every step I take
Trying to rectify
Got lost a little further
Well, I've been trying to justify
Find out how and where it came

The devil was my angel, now I'm just not sure.
To travel as my angel there's always my witch

Gonna take you back down
I won't feel no shame
Till my dreams
Are my own again
Gonna take you right down, and I'll take the blame
Till my dreams are my own again

Here I am again

Devil was my angel, now I'm just not sure
To travel as my angel there's always my witch
Maybe you're an angel, tried to remember you're an angel
Remember you're an angel, if you're not sure

Falling from the western shore to find yourselves alone again,
Wondering where you have been, Your lonely voice calls
across the starlit coast, Reaching out to be seen.

[Chorus:]
She cries your name,
three times again,
She cries your name,
How long can this love remain.

Cut beneath the surface screen of what we say and what we
seem, Is a trick to be seen, She keeps crying out your name,
But her scream sound the same, How fickle fate can be.

[Chorus]

Birds that scream for territory can learn to sing
euphorically, Give him time an' he's real, And there's a
wasteland in your soul the burned out trees will leave you
cold, Living out an ideal.

[Chorus: x2]

She weaves secrets in her hair
The whispers are not hers to share.
She's deep as a well.
She's deep as a well.

Another day wastes away,
And my heart sinks with the sun.
A new day's dawning,
And a new day has not yet begun.

So, anyway,
There I was,
Just sitting on your porch
Drinking in the sweetest decline.
The sweetest decline.
Sober mind

What's the use in regrets
They're just things we haven't done yet.
What are regrets?
They're just lessons we haven't learned yet.

Another day draws away,
And my heart sinks with the sun.
It's like catching snow on my tongue.
It's like catching snow on my tongue.

So, anyway,
There I was,
Just sitting on your porch
Drink in the sweetest decline.
The sweetest decline.
Sober mind

What are regrets?
What are regrets?
They're just lessons we haven't learned yet.
It's like catching snow on your tongue.
You can't pin this butterfly down.
Can't pin this butterfly down.

It's another cold night,
I wrap this head around my shoulders, tight.
Please excuse me, seems there's someone at my door
I wouldn't leave, but the need is so much more.
So much more.

It's another cold day,
And I'm always walking down the escalator the up way
Please excuse me, I can't seem to get inside.
I only wanted to know if you're alive.
You're alive.
If you're alive
You're alive.

I can't see there's a ?
There's a feeling up there,
But I don't know what it is
Don't know what it means.
Don't know what it means.

So turn it into light
It always seems the further when the ends in sight.
Please excuse me, I just need to be outside.
Only looking for air to breathe.
Air to breathe.

I feel alive.
(I feel so alive, it's cold tonight.
I don't know how to live)
(don't know how to live)

Air to breathe.

Some of the worst wrongs
Get righted on three chords,
Like a promise,
Or a kiss goodbye.
When the sneer on your lips
Is the livest thing,
Just alive enough to die.

Open my heart,
In my heart there's something telling me
To open my heart.
Open my heart
Yeah, I've been blind,
And all that's been lost
Is a short loop running round my mind.

Love is like laughter
See it happen by chance,
Like a promise,
Be a kiss goodbye
When the smile on your lips
Is the livest thing
More alive than any sky I've seen.

I open my heart
In my heart is there's something telling me
To open my heart.
I open my heart,
See I've been blind,
And all that's been cut
Is a short loop running round my mind.

I open my heart
In my heart there's something telling me
To open my heart.
I open my heart,
See I've been blind,
And all that's been cut
Is a short loop running round my mind.

It's just running round my mind,
Running all the time.
Running all the time
It's a short loop
A short loop
Running round my mind

I dreamed of you last night,
You had a different face,
Or maybe just a haircut,
You were older and wiser,
Yet more like a child,
I was amazed to still find you ,
There at the back of my mind,
This dream was short,
This dream was happy,
This dream was short,
This dream was happy.

Put your loving on a slow burner,
If you want to keep your loving warmer,
Put your loving on a slow simmer,
If it helps to keep a light from growing dimmer.

Hold on hold out,
You're still thrown against a wall,
Never looking to be picked up,
Or left alone to fall.

Can you touch me with your love,
Would I feel it if I trust enough,
Could it almost be a lust for life,
Would I feel it if I'd not known it by sight.

You could put it on a coal burner,
Deception never kept it any warmer,
The truth is cooking on a slow simmer,
A light still shining even when its dimmer,

Hold on hold out,
You're still thrown against a wall,
Never looking to be picked up,
Or left alone to fall.

Can you touch me with your love,
Would I feel it if I trust enough,
Could it almost be a lust for life,
Would I feel it if I'd not known it by sight.

Troubled waters locked so far down below,
Will have to find another place to go,
If the truth in my heart gets put aside,
Just let me go and wait for the next ride.

Hold on hold out,
I've been thrown against that wall,
Never wanted to be picked up,
And left alone to fall,

Then it touched me just like love,
Still feel it when I trust enough,
Could almost be a lust for life,
Still feel it though I'd not known it by sight,
Can feel it 'cos I know it's all right.
