Comin' Tonight - Martha Wainwright

You’re comin' tonight

To my home town

I’ve been to yours many times before

And it’s always been a thrill

You’ll stay in a hotel

Or at friends near by

We haven’t spent the night together in this town

Since nineteen seventy nine

Not such a long time

I can steal a melody

Of this I am allowed

'Cause you would never sue me baby

It wouldn’t look good, it’d be weird

Have a drink after the show

I might really want to know

But everything you say I oppose

I blame it on my hole

It’s just my role

I can steal a melody

Of this I am allowed

'Cause you would never sue me baby

It wouldn’t look good, it’d be weird

I spend my time trying to forget you

With booze and smoke from cigarettes and dope

I only seem to forget myself

It’s only you that is left

I can steal a melody

Of this I am allowed

'Cause you would never sue me baby

I can steal a melody

This I am allowed

You would never sue me baby

It wouldn’t look good, it’d be weird

It’d be weird, it’d be weird

You’re comin' tonight

To my home town
