Partners In Crime – Lyrics

I’m gonna lose my senses all over this town tonight
With you by my side, my partner in crime
We’ll lean up against each other and we’ll stumble home alright

It’s so good to be here within range of your smile
It’s been too long, too many miles
So let’s not pick nits, let’s not waste time
I wanna light up your eyes, remind you how your mine

And you, you’re gonna lose your senses all over this town tonight
With me by your side, your partner in crime
We’ll lean up against each other and we’ll stumble home alright

I’m gonna lose my senses all over this town tonight
With you by my side, my partner in crime
We’ll lean up against each other and we’ll stumble home alright

Come Closer – Lyrics

The long way out is over here
Electricity pouring from the socket
Carbon monoxide kisses
An alarm wired to your front pocket

Come closer
Come closer
It’ll be ok

I’ll pour salt around your bed
To keep the nightmares away
From the roof I’ll keep watch all around
Until I don’t know night from day

Come closer
Come closer
It’ll be ok

I was holding on
Lord knows I held it in
But if you asked the stars
They’d say I should win

Come closer
Come closer
It’ll be ok

The Lyrics Project

I’m either lazy, or too confident in my ability to remember the lyrics to my songs and I realised I have hardly any of them written down anywhere. I’ve decided to remedy this and get more of them up here on our site at https://www.sjatr.com/cats/lyrics

I have dozens of songs, and it might take me a little while, but if you check back you’ll probably see a few new songs posted per week.

More soon!

None The Same – Lyrics

i hope you know
i’d never leave you
with a babe on your arm
i’m not that man

but someday she’ll grow
and she won’t need me
i’ll rejoin the war
show her what’s worth fighting for

’cause I’m too good a shot
shoot whenever I want
they’ll give me an army
right on the spot

because you snuck away
with his trembling hands
the one who would cower
whenever i stand

but know i forgive you
i hope you’re well
if any man harms you
i’ll deliver him hell

i don’t know what we’re called
i don’t know its name
but i know that we’re family
none the same

i don’t know what we’re called
i don’t know its name
but i know that we’re family
none the same

i don’t know what we’re called
i don’t know its name
but i know that we’re family
none the same

Black Venomous Snakes – Lyrics

black venomous snakes slither over you
i was pulling them off and dodging your daggers too
but you can’t see and you don’t care
how can i breathe the same air
when everything you say is untrue

i want you to be the other one in this love affair
instead you only pray to me at the altar of your despair
i want you to be the other one in this love affair
instead you only pray to me at the altar of your despair

even the moon and sun agree to disagree
so we watch the waves entwined again
but it was too good to be true
our start before fear’s debut
the lights came on and that was the end

i want you to be the other one in this love affair
instead you only pray to me at the altar of your despair
i want you to be the other one in this love affair
instead you only pray to me at the altar of your despair

we won’t put the blame on you
we learned to avoid that sinister brew
but i’ve been broke down and propped up
your lips never touched this cup
it’s the end of days but it seems so subdued

i want you to be the other one in this love affair
instead you only pray to me at the altar of your despair
i want you to be the other one in this love affair
instead you only pray to me at the altar of your despair
i want you to be the other one in this love affair
instead you only pray to me at the altar of your despair

Leave – Lyrics

so you want to take me back, you want to take me back today
but oh i’ve been burned before, burned before that way
so no i won’t get burned again, burned again today

i found a way to let you go, you wanna hear her name, but you should already know
so my love it’s time to cry goodbye, take one last look that says “lord knows we tried”
to leave this hell behind
leave

so you come sneaking back with your poison and your fear
see the crosses on the wall say “you’re not welcome here”
but oh you’ve come to take me back you’ve come to take me back today
you say the flames they miss me so, the one that got away
but no not that hell again, i will not lose my way

toward the end we kissed like lepers
they say that sometimes love just dies, but i think we knew better
oh my love, if we could only touch again, the wounds that we would mend
but that’s a soul i can not spend
so leave this hell behind
leave
leave
leave

so you come sneaking back with your poison and your fear
see the crosses on the wall say “you’re not welcome here”

River, Country, Girl – Lyrics

lay me down by the river
so i can hear my voice with hers
lay me down under the stars
and everything the night prefers

lay me down in the country
a campfire to warm my dreams
lay me down in the meadow
where things are just what they seem

lay me down by the girl
you’ll know her by the look in my eyes
lay us down in the sunshine
to rest as we burn across the sky

lay me, lay me down
lay me, lay me down
lay me, lay me down
