Stella

(album: Fortress Round My Heart - 2008)

God was there, always had the best of drugs,
Knew where to get them, brought a ladyfriend
And I believe her name was Stella, and he said
Stella, Stella, I wanna give you the world if you just stay with me tonight
Stella, I wanna give you the world if you just hold me tight

And I wonder how it will go
When God hands over the whole wide world to
A 43 year old hooker from downtown
Maybe it's about time the old man hands over the crown
Stella, Stella, I wanna give you the world if you just stay with me tonight
Stella, Stella, I wanna give you the world if you just hold me tight,
Hold me tight

And it made me realize how much you wanna give away just to feel loved
And the Lord blinked to me and asked: what is real love to you?
What is fake and what is true
Oh, Stella, I wanna give you the world if you just stay with me tonight
Stella, Stella! I wanna give you the world if you just hold me tight,
Hold me tight
