Bobby Gentry - Beth Orton

Blue and you lean on me

You know that you’re crushing me

You’re sulking and I can not breathe

You’re sitted in the clouds

You’re building a well cross the light

An unusual nightmare for me

Collecting dead rainbows

From puddles on my hills

Taken home to warm by the fire

The flower’s in bloom

It will never expire

It’s just coming round again

I’m tearing my heart from the seams

I keep tearing my heart on the seams

But I’ll keep pushing you 'cause I know just where you’ve gone

Yeah I’ll be pushing you till it’s too far to get back home

Will put my soul on stride

'Cause at the speed of light

I can do what I like

Blue when you lean on me

You know that you’re crushing me

You’re sulking but still I can breathe

You’re sitted in the clouds

You’re building a well cross the light

Say by an unusual daydreaming way

I’m tearing my heart from the seams

I keep tearing my heart at the seams

But I keep pushing you 'cause I know just where you’ve gone

Yeah I’ll keep pushing you till it’s too far to get back home

Will put my soul on stride

'Cause at the speed of light

I can do what I like

Yeah I’ll be loving you like it’s all I’ve ever known

Yeah I’ll be giving up till it’s too far to get back home

I put my heart on stride

'Cause at the speed of light

I can be out of sight

Yeah I’ll be loving you like it’s all I’ve ever known

Yeah, I’ll be loving you till it’s too far to get back home

Will put my soul on stride

'Cause at the speed of light

I can do what I like…
