Sinner & Saint

Something’s in the air
Something in my life
Something’s in the air
Silent as a rose
Tells me that it’s time to speak out
To all my friends and foes
And every single day
Make the same mistakes
Wonder if the day will arrive
When life can really begin
Please let it begin
Something’s in the air
Something in my life
I would speak to you
Softly in your womb
Maybe you should stay for a while
In that pink old room
And all the days keep passing by
Sailing on and on
(I) keep smiling
And wondering where they’ve gone
Everybody knows
Exactly who I am
Pin me down without any care
And file me neatly away
Oh yeah you think that with a glance
You know just where I stand
You see me
And everything I am
But you have barely seen a glimpse
For in a single given day
I am a sinner and a saint
Something’s in the air
Something in my life
And all the days keep passing by
Sailing on and on
You know me
And everything about me
All the good times and the bad
You know my history my story,
Yeah I’m a no good rotten saint

You’re gonna beat it you’re gonna beat it you’re gonna beat it
You’re gonna get through you’re gonna get through you’re gonna get through it
You’re gonna fight it
And right it
You’re gonna beat it you’re gonna beat it you’re gonna beat it
You’re gonna get through you’re gonna get through you’re gonna get through it
You’re gonna fight it
And right it
You’re gonna beat it you’re gonna beat it you’re gonna beat it
You never give up no you never give in
You never back down ever when they think they'll win
You never lose your ground even when at times it looks like all times are gonna be grim
You’re a part time fighter when the part comes your way
There’s black or there’s white but there never is grey
Hesitation is for the kind who lose and that’s
Never a part you could choose
You cover my back my front’s never bare
If there’s ever trouble I know you’ll be there
For I am weak and you are strong
This is a prayer a psalm and a song
For the one whom I’ve come from
Yeah you are the giver of life
You gave me everything under the sun
The minute I opened my eyes
And breathed in your wonderment breathed in your love
In your love

Beautiful Child

My beautiful child it’s selfish I know
But I want you at all times all to myself
Watching the news I can’t help myself feel
The world don’t deserve you
But I do, I do
My beautiful child I had a strange dream
Don’t even ask me what it all means
The world was on fire and the fire was blue
Yeah I’m still a child, just older than you
We’re thrown in this world without any idea,
Looking on in wonder, horror and fear
But we can find strength if we stick with each other
Yeah we can find love when we stick with one another
So beautiful child don’t ever leave me
Or just go ahead, just go and leave me
You know I don’t need you like you surely need me
You know I don’t need you I’m not that damn needy
Needy baby
Can’t you see without me you don’t have a damn hope no
Can’t you see I could thrive but you wouldn’t survive no
Oh my baby oh my baby child
Oh my darling oh my darling child
Will you ever love me like I ever love you child
And are you gonna break me like I'm gonna break you child
Oh my sweet child
And sometimes I wonder whether I shoulda’ had you
Whether it’s worth it, whether life is all worth it
Sometimes feel so guilty, sometimes feel so grateful
Don’t want you to end up, all messed up and hateful
But, you know, if I had a choice
I wouldn’t have given this up for a thing
And watching the news, I can’t help myself feel
The world don’t deserve you
At all.

I wanna be complicit in your scheme
I wanna be a part of everything that you do
You are the one,
You are the one for me
I wanna get involved in all your love
I wanna be a part of all the love that you make
You are the one,
You are the one for me
I wanna be the lover of your life
I wanna be a pillow to your head
Protect you from the cruel things they said all your life
They were the ones
They were the ones who hurt you
It might be many years before they’re dead
It might be many years before their words leave your head
I’ll be the one
I’ll be the one to soothe you
I wanna be the lover of your life
LET ME BE A PILLOW TO YOUR HEAD
PROTECT YOU FROM THE CRUEL THINGS THAT THEY SAID
IT MIGHT BE A WHILE BEFORE THEY’RE DEAD
SO ACCEPT MY LOVE INSTEAD
ACCEPT MY LOVE INSTEAD
