"Orielle"

[verse 1]
Orielle works the late shift now
Black wool sweater, tired mouth
I buy cigarettes I don’t need
Just to hear her talk to me

Stand outside beneath the light
Rain comes down most every night
She lets strangers drift on through
Orielle, I wanna go home with you

[chorus]
How many bad loves
How many last calls
How many nights watching you fall
Do I wait through
Till I get you?

Orielle
Orielle

[verse 2]
My friends say I move too slow
Maybe they’re right, I don’t know
Every night I buy the same thing
Hoping she remembers me

Heard she left another flat
Another drunk she won’t call back
Another box beside the curb
Another year outside her world

[chorus]
How many dead stars
How many cheap bars
How many boys
Do you go through
Till you let me
Go home with you?

Orielle
Orielle

[bridge]
I don’t wanna save your soul
I just wanna grow old slow
Watch TV and fall asleep
Put your cold feet next to me

[outro]
How many bad dreams
How many maybes
How many strangers call you “Baby”
Till your whole world
Lets me in?

Orielle
