paper bag

fiona apple’in ikinci albümü when the pawn hits albümünde bulunan evladiyelik bir diğer şarkısı. o ne sözler be. ritmi de tekinsiz bir acelecilik katıyor. seviyoruz.

sözlerini de koyayım tam olsun ekolünden.

ı was staring at the sky, just looking for a star
to pray on, or wish on, or something like that
ı was having a sweet fix of a daydream of a boy
whose reality ı knew, was a hopeless to be had
but then the dove of hope began its downward slope
and ı believed for a moment that my chances
were approaching to be grabbed
but as it came down near, so did a weary tear
ı thought it was a bird, but it was just a paper bag

hunger hurts, and ı want him so bad, oh it kills
'cause ı know ı'm a mess he don't wanna clean up
ı got to fold 'cause these hands are too shaky to hold
hunger hurts, but starving works, when it costs too much to love

and ı went crazy again today, looking for a strand to climb
looking for a little hope
baby said he couldn't stay, wouldn't put his lips to mine,
and a fail to kiss is a fail to cope
ı said, 'honey, ı don't feel so good, don't feel justified
come on put a little love here in my void,' he said
'ıt's all in your head,' and ı said, 'so's everything'
but he didn't get it ı thought he was a man
but he was just a little boy

hunger hurts, and ı want him so bad, oh it kills
'cause ı know ı'm a mess he don't wanna clean up
ı got to fold 'cause these hands are too shaky to hold
hunger hurts, but starving works, when it costs too much to love

hunger hurts, but ı want him so bad, oh it kills
'cause ı know ı'm a mess he don't wanna clean up
ı got to fold 'cause these hands are too shaky to hold
hunger hurts, but starving works, when it costs too much to love

hunger hurts, but ı want him so bad, oh it kills
because ı know that ı'm a mess that he don't wanna clean up
ı got to fold because these hands are just too shaky to hold
hunger hurts, but starving, it works, when it costs too much to love
