Give it up to me!

Give it up to me

Forget about lessons
For here come the seasons,
The noisy boys
Won�t be a nuisance this year

I, I�m a chiming bell, outside your house

And when you try to sleep tonight,
I know, you�ll come to your window,
Fall off the ledge,
And he�ll catch you in his arms (open wide)
He�ll march you to your death,
And I�ll run off
Cos� I�m not, no I�m no scarecrow

CHORUS
Aint it the funny how the world seemed so boring,
Until I came along,
And aint it lovely how
I wrote you into a song
After everything, I�ve watched you cruise through,
Funny that you�d lose your mind

To
; me

Remember each and every tree
The way they formed with splinters and leaves
And toy soldiers,
We�d bury beneath them

We, we could care, but we didn�t have a hope in hell, to grow a heart in winters, conditions, (it�s all in persistence they said)

And when you try to sleep tonight
You know I�m not the silent type,
You�ll come to the window,
Slide off the windowsill
And he�ll catch you in his arms, (open wide)
He�ll love you to death
And I�ll run off and hide

Cos� you know, no, you know I am not a scarecrow

CHORUS
Aint it the funny how the world seemed so boring,
Until I came along,
And aint it lovely how
I wrote you into a song
After everything, I�ve watched you cruise through,
Funny that you�d lose your mind

To
;me

Forget about lesions,
You cannot see them,
You can only feel my cold hands
Wrapped around your face
Tryna steady your neck
And restore some of your breathe
Dearest, I�m not trying to claim I�m destined

To own you�..
Just wish I could clone you

Aint it the funny how the world seemed so boring,
But then I came along,
And someone lovely
wrote you into a song
After everything, I�ve watched you cruise through,
Funny that you�d lose your mind

To me,
As I lost mine to you
