Say goodnight and go

Skipping beats, blushing cheeks
I am struggling
Daydreaming bed scenes in
The corner cafe
And then I'm left in bits
Recovering, tectonic trembling
You get me every time

Why'd you have to be so cute?
It's impossible to ignore you
Must you make me laugh so much?
It's bad enough we get along so well
Say goodnight and go

Follow you home
You've got your headphones on
And you're dancing
Got lucky, beautiful shot
You're taking everything off
Watch the curtains, wide open
And you fall in the same routine
Flicking through the TV
Relaxed and reclining
And you think you're alone

Oh, why'd you have to be so cute?
It's impossible to ignore you
Must you make me laugh so much?
It's bad enough we get along so well
Say goodnight and go

One of these days
You'll miss your train and come stay with me
It's always say goodnight and go
We'll have drinks and talk about things
And any excuse to stay awake with you
You'd sleep here, I'd sleep there
But then the heating may be down again
At my convenience
We'd be good, we'd be great together
(Go)

Why'd you have to be so cute?
It's impossible to ignore you
Must you make me laugh so much?
It's bad enough we get along so well

Say goodnight and go
(Why is it always, always?)
Goodnight and go
(Darling, not again)
Go

Back to back with Ray La Montagne and Imogen would bring the world to a halt as like The Day The Earth Stood Still -

That has to be the great Jeff Beck playing some wicked guitar licks in this track, I like the innovative production a lot.... but the lyrics are really bland... teeny bopper music as some have pointed out.

I really like her music, especially the more mature recent album, I just wish she would take singing lessons.

I agree....this is teeny-bopper pop music! Even the lyrics are tenny-bopper. Ugh!  {#Rolleyes}

Not anywhere near the same kind of emotion and lyrical quality of her first album, but not horrible in any way.

It's nice to see that she's gotten a bit more diverse in her music.  I Megaphone was very lacking in a dynamic range, and kind of sounded like a knock-off Tori Amos which, actually, she did pretty well... Regardless, good song, decent album - hope she comes out with something that's a little more unique next go-around

Thanks for the info. DRM was the only reason I didn't buy this when it came out and I've often wished I had the album.

I saw that on YouTube. I gave her credit for network-debut jitters, but I still liked the heck out of it. But the fact that she's a gorgeous, ultra-tall brunette might have swayed my opinion... (click here)

Wow! If I were diabetic, I'd need some insulin after listening to this song.

I finally bought this last week, now that it no-longer has the crippling DRM. Amazing she did (most) of it herself. Check out this utubia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSIbfzK2spg Guitar on this song is Jeff Beck, by the way.
