Can I Be Your Lover

(album: Permanent Vacation - 2017)

Can I be your lover?
Sucks that I have to choose
Can I just take Carol
And selfish you

I'll just sit here waiting
Half smiling and fighting
Even though I know that
But these fish ain't biting

I'm burnt out, shut down
Not curvy somebody say
With your long hair and blue eyes
All naked on my balcony

Can I be your lover?
I never mattered much to you
Can I be your lover?
'Cause Imma fake you to lose
Still, I ask you

Can I be your lover?
That's just up to you
I really shouldn't battle
Offended and fool

You dive into the water
Wet, naked and cold
You're drowning in your ego
That washed away when you rose

I'm burnt out, shut down
Not curvy somebody say
With your long hair and blue eyes
All naked on my balcony

Can I be your lover?
I never mattered much to you
Can I be your lover?
'Cause Imma fake you to lose
Still, I ask you

(Burnt out, shut down)
(Burnt out, shut down)
(Burnt out, shut down)
(Burnt out, shut down)

I've been burnt out, shut down
Not curvy somebody say
With your long hair and blue eyes
All naked on my balcony

I've been burnt out, shut down
Not heard you and not listening
You leave and tease me, goodbye
No wonder you trouble me
