lyrics

I didn't know she'd act like that
Took all my love and handed it back
Felt like my world was getting too cold
And this is the story that she told:

"I am the fruit that grows on a vine
Drops in your hand when it's time
I am the lost labour of love
I am a god in my kingdom of one"

I guess you could say I was confused
I tried to make all the right moves
Everything felt like it was in vain
I'd ask her what's wrong she'd smile and say:

"I am a cloud that drifts in the sky
Carries the seed of a brand new life
I am the star that anchors your world
I am the one and only girl"

It's always the same in the end
It's not what you did, it's what you said
But an empty house on a dead-end street
Still ain't a home to me.

We took some shots in a photo booth
It's funny it never looks like you
Guess that's the face everyone sees
But she never looked that way to me

"I am the fruit that grows on a vine
Drops in your hand when it's time
I am the lost labour of love
I am a god in my kingdom of one
I am a cloud that drifts in the sky
Carries the seed of a brand new life
I am the star that anchors your world
I am the one and only girl"

His vocal nuance and adept arrangements make for a compelling listen. ... more
