Pillow Queens House That Sailed Away Lyrics
I’m taking leaps
Between this year and last
Been a full spin
Came around so fast
Nobody told me that this was the hard part
Wasting away cooking meals for a sore heart
And nobody said you’d still bring me flowers
You’re pretty strong for someone with no power And nobody asked the time or the day
That you left that you sailed away
She learned to talk before you
Have you still got nothing to say?
Show me, show me, show me how to be your man Won’t you show me, show me, show me how to be your man?
I’m making friends
I like what I offer
It’s been touch and go
But I’m ready to push
Nobody asked you to prove you’re a monster
A bump in the night was never much to ask for
It’s hard to pull back ‘cause you always remember At least you’re intact
At least you surrendered
And nobody said I’d be gone with the water
But it could be worse at least that’s what you taught her
And she learned to talk before you
You’ve still got nothing to say
Show me, show me, show me how to be your man Won’t you show me, show me, show me how to be your man?
Was it not enough to move?
Had you more left to prove?
We’d said prayers and prayers
That things would improve
I’d laid all of the stones too big to dig up
But you sold the land anyway
And bought a house to sail away
Well you’ve been around but you always come back Your feet hit the ground and there’s something you lack You’ll search forever, I want that for you
You’re addicted to that something new I want that for you
That something new
Borrowed and blue
I want that for you
