The Desert Sessions - A Girl Like Me lyrics

Hot skin in the night In the hour when the animals are born And crimes of pa**ion are committed Take me to the morning light Take me to your leader It took a girl like me To bring you to your knees You took a girl like me You are my heart You are my only heart But this cold air is k**ing me And as we make love The silence, the silence Trying to find the thread Of failed romance It took a girl like me To bring you to your knees You take a girl like me I swing my face towards the sky You put your hand over my mouth Oh, take me Take me to the frozen north Skating, falling Falling down, down, down Into icy water I'll be what you want me to be To bring you to your knees Your lover, your daughter We'll move in slow motion Falling down, down, down Into icy water You took a girl like me I might never leave this room again Shut myself inside the old photographs The faded light of the young girl Patterns, shadows on the walls Painted ladies They look a lot like me It took a girl like me To bring you to your knees You took a girl like me
