Etta James

Did you spend most of your life waitin'
On a fairytale read between pages
Did you huddle up close to your boombox radio
Is somebody waiting on the same song
And we sold our souls on the fantasies we found
In records and black and white movies
And I used to beg June to burn me alive
If that would get me anywhere but here
Now Etta James hit that symphony
Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy
And for most of my sad life I figured I was gonna die alone
Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars
Twenty long years away from your heart
Til finally finally my love is in my arms
My love is in my arms
And it was impossible to hold on to anything
In my chest was a lonesome growing cyclone
I kept pictures tucked up into the rear view
Above to the sirens all lost in the ocean
And all we wanted was absolutely everything
Like foolish hungry young lions
I was lost and alone a million light years from home
It was nobody's fault but mine
Now Etta James hit that symphony
Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy
And for most of my sad life I figured I was gonna die alone
Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars
Twenty long years away from your heart
But finally finally my love is in my arms
And was there a hole in your life
Did you kill to keep warm but somehow never quite satisfied
Do you feel like it's always time to go
And it's always wrong and it's always off
And it's hard to know which heart to hold
Now do you lie to someone is someone else on your mind
Do you lieto someone with me on your mind
Now Etta James hit that symphony
Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy
And for most of my sad life I figured I was gonna die alone
Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars
Twenty long years away from your heart
Til finally finally my love is in my arms
My love is in my arms
