Kt Tunstall - Skinny Lou lyrics

Skinny Lou you used to be that I couldn't see you sideways Skinny Lou many times I wish I could be like you Turn away from the bay in my own ways Just like you do Skinny Lou There's a pull I can feel like gravity, grabbing me sideways I bought a railway station ticket to take me out of this town Leave me somewhere standing with the rain on my face again and again Oh, is it true you used to run with constellations And the rock-a-billy boys will never see Your artistry of taking your whole world in without taking it all on Because you know it will be your skinny shoulder it rests upon Skinny Lou I've a mind to sew a tapestry this time For it feels like gold in the pocket of a coat It would be easy to forget you ever had To have it we do, me and you Oh, is it true you used to run with constellations And the rock-a-billy boys will never see Your artistry of taking taking your whole world in without taking it all on For you know it will be your skinny shoulder it rests upon Yes you know it will be your skinny shoulders it rests upon Oh you know it will be your skinny shoulders it rests upon
