At first you will find
A prophecy of what could have been you know
(YOU KNOW)
You know there’s all sorts of crap on the TV these days
Now you won’t live after
Such disaster you’re a lot full of smashed up cars
Cross hatched in the metal when you’re cracking up
But you’re part of the pack, pup
You’re part of something bigger than the laws of nature
Mrs. Thatcher
Your cruel heart navigates the world we live in
With its anger
Going nowhere, coming atcha
Rapture in my head
I keep looking up like I’m already dead
Rapture, oh my lord
I been playing catch-up
I’m already bored
Lalalalala
God tell me I sure am on the list
How can you make yourself so scarce from someone you love
Oh it don’t make sense
Your love is never better than the morning after
(Morning after)
Mother Nature, coming atcha
Rapture in my head
I keep looking up like I’m already dead
Rapture, oh my lord
I’ve been playing catch-up
I’m already bored
Rapture in my head
I keep looking up like I’m already dead
Rapture, oh my lord
I’ve been playing catch-up
I’m already bored
Cause it’s rapture in my head
You say this is up
I’m already dead
Rapture in my head
You say this is up
I’m already dead
Lets talk about all the things that we shouldnt talk about
Those kind of words that will change all the things we talk about
Tell me do you ever think of us?
Should I ask for more or should I stop?
What if a tomorrow means that we are here together?
What if we are taking chances just to lose it all?
Am I really crazy thinking bout this all together?
What if Ive been missing the writing on the wall?
What if I say
I know, you know
What if I told you I like you?
We stay, we go
What if I told you I like you?
I know, you know
What if I told you I like you?
We stay, we go
What if I told you I like you?
What if I told you I like you?
What if I told you I like you?
I hear everything they saying, saying bout us
Its not about right or wrong, its about what we love
Would it be simple or would it be too complicated?
Should I keep going or maybe its better to stop?
What if a tomorrow means that we are here together?
What if we are taking chances just to loose it all?
Am I really crazy thinking bout this all together?
What if Ive been missing all the writing on the wall?
What if I say
I know, you know
What if I told you I like you?
We stay, we go
What if I told you I like you?
I know, you know
What if I told you I like you?
We stay, we go
What if I told you I like you?
What if I told you I like you?
Lets talk about all the things we shouldnt talk about…

Jenny, darling, youre my best friend
But theres a few things that you dont know of
Why I borrow your lipstick so often
Im using your shirt as a pillow case
I wanna ruin our friendship
We should be lovers instead
I dont know how to say this
Cause youre really my dearest friend
Jenny, darling, youre my best friend
Ive been doing bad things that you dont know about
Stealing your stuff now and then
Nothing youd miss but it means the world to me
I wanna ruin our friendship
We should be lovers instead
I dont know how to say this
Cause youre really my dearest friend
I wanna ruin our friendship
I dont know how to say this
Cause youre really my dearest friend
Jenny take my hand
Cause we are more than friends
I will follow you until the end
Jenny take my hand
I cannot pretend
Why I never like your new boyfriends
Oh, your love for them wont last long
Forget those amigos
Oh, your love for them wont last long
Forget those amigos
Forget those amigos
I wanna ruin our friendship
We should be lovers instead
I dont know how to say this
Cause youre really my dearest friend
Oh, your love for them wont last long
We should be lovers instead
Oh, your love for them wont last long
Cause youre really my dearest friend
We should be lovers instead
Cause youre really my dearest friend
Jenny
[Verse 1]
If you ever leave me, baby
Leave some morphine at my door
Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
To realize what we used to have
We dont have it anymore
Theres no religion that could save me
No matter how long my knees are on the floor, oh
So keep in mind all the sacrifices Im making
To keep you by my side
To keep you from walking out the door
[Chorus]
Cause therell be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
Therell be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday, itll rain
Rain, rain
[Verse 2]
Ill never be your mothers favorite
Your daddy cant even look me in the eye
Ooh, if I was in their shoes, Id be doing the same thing
Saying, «There goes my little girl
Walking with that troublesome guy»
But theyre just afraid of something they cant understand
Ooh, but little darling watch me change their minds
Yeah, for you Ill try, Ill try, Ill try, Ill try
And pick up these broken pieces till Im bleeding
If thatll make you mine
[Chorus]
Cause therell be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
Therell be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday, itll rain
Rain, rain
[Bridge]
Ooh, dont you say (Dont you say)
Goodbye (Goodbye)
Dont you say (Dont you say)
Goodbye (Goodbye)
Ill pick up these broken pieces till Im bleeding
If thatll make it right
[Chorus]
Cause therell be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
And therell be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
And just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday, itll rain
Rain, rain
