Briggs Songtext
von Mike Mains & The Branches

One, two, three, four

Close your eyes
I mean it for a second, close your eyes
Baby, do your best to concentrate your mind
Fix it upon whatever you like
I′m drunk on a memory back when we were just seventeen
Holding Lake Michigan with your eyes on me
Oh, and my hands deep in the pockets of my blue jeans
I said you could be my Meryl and I will be your James Dean
Well I knew that you could fix my soul

I want to waste a while with you, baby, in the living room
I'm never going to sleep again
You lovely creature washing over me like rain
Slowly draining all the black out of my veins
Until my eyes shine gold as the morning

I was loved by a woman


I remember summer days
Driving down to Dallas in a summer haze
Sugar, I was up when you walked off the plane
Standing like an angel with your suitcase
And all I wanted was to be your guardian

I want to waste a while with you, baby, in the living room
I′m never going to sleep again
You lovely creature washing over me like rain
Slowly draining all the black out of my veins
Until my eyes shine gold as the morning

I was loved by a woman

I wanna waste a while with you
I wanna waste a while with you
I wanna waste a while with you
I wanna waste a while with you
Wanna waste a while with you
I wanna waste a while with you
