She Sells Songtext
von Bryan Ferry

And I gotta stay high all the time

And I gotta stay
High all the time
To keep you off my mind

She staying high
Almost all the time
Another party almost every night
High heels and make up
Ever week she′s on another flight
Goes around always comes around
That's her own life motto
Sunday California


Monday in Chicago
But it′s cool I'll see her soon
Lovin' all my tunes
Beauty walking the streets
A beast inside my room
Can′t stay for long
Need to write these songs
Work from night then back to dawn

Nothing′s right if the feelings wrong

So she's gone by the break of dawn
A broken heart but a stronger mind
In that girl is what you′ll find
Staying high almost all the time
But kills it every single time
Tipsy off a glass of wine
Lewy V shades
What she hides behind
Purse more deep than her state of mind
Life is just one heel of a ride
But life is what she hated
Love was just a dream
Now she thinks she's made it
Travelling over seas
Can′t get me off her mind
She calls me all the time
I always hit decline
And she's always getting high like


Staying in my play pretend
Where the fun ain′t got no end
Oh, can't go home alone again
Need someone to numb the pain

You're gone and I gotta stay
High all the time
And I gotta stay
High all the time
And I gotta stay
High all the time
To keep you off my mind

She′s chasing dreams
Chasing time
Never gonna work a 9 to 5
Broken heart but stays alive
Model pics from time to time
But either way she flows it
Walks around like she owns it
Bad chick and she knows it
Mean face when she poses
Always bathing under the city lights
Love drunk can′t get it right
Different club almost every night
Every morning another flight
With a broken heart no use
Battle scars and tattoos
Fake smiles and excuse
Hiding what she's just afraid to lose
Love isn′t on her menu
And it's always on her plate
A side dish she continues
Just in case it′s too late
She's parking just to numb the pain
Maybe it′ll fade away
But feels it every single day
Since back in the month of May
She can't go home alone
So she's high and on the phone
Can′t stand being on her own
Always need someone to hold
Can′t get her off my mind
I call her all the time
She always hit decline
And I know she's getting high like

Staying in my play pretend
Where the fun ain′t got no end
Oh, can't go home alone again
Need someone to numb the pain

You′re gone and I gotta stay
High all the time
And I gotta stay
High all the time
And I gotta stay
High all the time
To keep you off my mind
