Pretty Please - Lauren Ruth Ward

When my heart beats, my heart bleeds

No one can see what they’re doing, doing to me

No, no

My soul suffers at the touch of breath

My soul sisters can’t help me rest

No, no

That one’s mischievous it seems

He’s not even listening

Only wants me when I am hot

When I am hot

Rather spend my days locked in your vault then in his haze

Can we push pause?

These are the days

These are the days

We were too hot to trot in the breeze

So stand by the water

I’ll shelter your needs

You’ll fall to your knees, oh geez

Oh pretty please, don’t make me beg

These months are young at the end of the day

I’ve got to leave, I want to stay

These months are young at the end of the day

Everybody told me don’t go fast

Don’t go too slow

Don’t hold back

Don’t put on a show

What do they know?

Have another drink

Just trust my instinct

Let it all sink in

Go with the flow

That’s what I know

Oh pretty please, just one more take

I’ll get it right before the end of the day

I know you’ll say what a mistake

But I’ll get it right before the end of the day

Pick myself up off the shelf

Though you’ve clipped my wings

I still do my thing

I’ll show you all of it

I said I pick myself up off the shelf

Though you’ve clipped my wings

I still do my thing.

I’ll show you all of it
