| She said…
|
| I gotta keep my head up outta the clouds
|
| They say I’ll die but they won’t show me how
|
| My skin is thick and my knees are weak
|
| I’ll run away for a kiss on the cheek, ow!
|
| Ooh ah
|
| I hate your smile but I like your teeth
|
| Your heart is bright, oh will you run with me?
|
| My lipstick stains on the telephone booth
|
| My mama said to forget about you, ow!
|
| Ooh ah
|
| We packed our bags to get away
|
| He said, «Babe, this is gonna be easy
|
| We’ll be fine, we’ll be okay
|
| I’ve got a van where we can stay
|
| But I don’t need your maybes
|
| I need someone to dance with me, baby»
|
| Cut my hair and changed my face
|
| I’m learnin' how to forget that place
|
| Burned my name to find a new
|
| And now they call me Lacy Loo, ow!
|
| Lacy Loo ah (x2)
|
| We built our fort from sticks and stones
|
| And now your words can’t break our bones
|
| The trees are high and the rivers deep
|
| You’ve given me your heart to keep, ow!
|
| Ooh ah
|
| We packed our bags to get away
|
| He said, «Babe, this is gonna be easy
|
| We’ll be fine, we’ll be okay
|
| I’ve got a van where we can stay
|
| But I don’t need your maybes
|
| I need someone to dance with me, baby»
|
| Kept my head in the clouds and my skin still tough
|
| But my knees aren’t weak in the city of love |
