The Lathums
Foolish Parley
[Verse 1]
There is just no time
For this foolish parley
They'll handcuff me, throw me away
They'll lock me up, do the same with the key
I know just what they'll do

[Refrain]
I find it very tender
I find it very warm
I find it comforting
Sitting closer to the sun

[Pre-Chorus]
Nowhere at all
Nowhere to hide

[Chorus]
I see fire in your eyes
Listen to my heartbeat
Then show me your disguise
Defeated, you're looking for
For the battle of life's been cruel
Save me, lady, all I know is you

[Verse 2]
Looks like your time is up
But you don't seem that fussed
You have a wit of steel, a heart of gold
Chestnut hair, but we be bones
I know, but what about you?
[Refrain]
I find it very tender
I find it very warm
I find it comforting
Sitting closer to the sun

[Pre-Chorus]
Nowhere at all
Nowhere to hide

[Chorus]
I see fire in your eyes
Listen to my heartbeat
Then show me your disguise
Defeated, you're looking for
For the battle of life's been cruel
Save me, lady, all I know is you

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
Nowhere at all
Nowhere to hide

[Chorus]
I see fire in your eyes
Listen to my heartbeat
Then show me your disguise
Defeated, you're looking for
For the battle of life's been cruel
Save me, lady, all I know is you
I only want you
