《We Almost Got It Together》歌词

[00:00:00] We Almost Got It Together - Tanita Tikaram (谭妮塔·提卡兰)

[00:00:18] We almost got it together

[00:00:21] And Ill be your favourite thing

[00:00:25] Stand by the river with hard-luck eyes

[00:00:28] And Ill just be open and sing

[00:00:35] I was only trying to surprise

[00:00:39] I wish I was like the frog-princess

[00:00:42] And Id never tell you lies

[00:00:51] And down by the soil of the hard-life

[00:00:54] They like to greet us with smiles

[00:00:58] They like to tell us their good hostess

[00:01:01] Had travelled a million miles

[00:01:05] But you'd like it written closer

[00:01:08] Yes you'd like it written pure

[00:01:12] If I told you this -

[00:01:14] Would you miss my kiss

[00:01:15] No - you'd come right back for more

[00:01:24] Oh Id like to be

[00:01:26] What I want to be

[00:01:28] But you want to carry on

[00:01:31] But you need to take

[00:01:33] What you have to take

[00:01:35] But Ill still be here when you're gone

[00:01:44] And theres a light by your window

[00:01:47] And Id like to capture you by there

[00:01:50] And Id like to hold you for all to see

[00:01:54] But they don't really care

[00:01:57] And if I said you're no peccadillo

[00:01:59] Yes I said you're a major thing

[00:02:04] Would you stand by me

[00:02:06] At the corner dock

[00:02:08] And say yes this girl is the swing

[00:02:17] Oh Id like to be

[00:02:18] What I want to be

[00:02:20] But you want to carry on

[00:02:24] But you need to take

[00:02:25] What you have to take

[00:02:27] But Ill still be here when you're gone

[00:02:37] And Id like another cue

[00:02:39] Thats why I strain to see

[00:02:43] And Id like the best in you

[00:02:46] Cos you write the best in me

[00:03:02] They were sure that Id be burning

[00:03:05] Yes -

[00:03:06] So their tart swerve to here might be

[00:03:10] But if I said you're gold inside

[00:03:12] Yes and if you were true to me

[00:03:16] Would you hang around with that creepy smile

[00:03:20] And crawl home back to me

[00:03:29] Oh Id like to be

[00:03:30] What I want to be

[00:03:32] But you want to carry on

[00:03:36] But you need to take

[00:03:37] What you have to take

[00:03:39] But Ill still be here when you're gone
