Newton Faulkner
Lipstick Jungle
[Verse 1]
She said
"I wanna live in a lipstick jungle
I wanna find what I'm searching for
I'm tired of rollin' on soul and thunder
I just want something of my own"

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been thinkin'
And I've been known to think too much
I've been drinkin'
And it's about time that I stopped
I've been sinkin'
I don't know what she knows, but I know that she's all I've got
So I'll go, yes, I'll go, where she goes

[Verse 2]
She said
"I wanna live in a lipstick jungle
I wanna be a million miles away
'Cause we're drifting in a fateless tumble
I know that things will never be the same"

[Pre-Chorus]
I've been thinkin'
And I've been known to think too much
I've been drinkin'
And it's about time that I stopped
I've been sinkin'
I don't know what she knows, but I know that she's all I got
So I'll go, yes, I'll go, where she goes
[Chorus]
And I wanna see the sun through her eyes
Wanna feel how she feels inside
Oh, as time floats by
Time floats by

[Verse 3]
She wants to live in a lipstick jungle
Chasing rainbows through a salty sky
She's looking for a dream that she can handle
Falling under her as time flows by, yeah

[Chorus]
And I wanna see the sun through her eyes
Wanna feel how she feels inside
Oh, as time floats by
Time flows by

[Bridge]
To love and hold, she's burning cold
The lights are on, but she's not home
When the wind blows, like a rollin' stone
I follow, can't let her go
And all I know is what I'm told
And every day another piece of the puzzle unfolds
My mind exposed, it's feeling old
Tried excuses, keep on pushin' me out of control
[Chorus]
Hey and I wanna see the sun through her eyes
Wanna feel how she feels inside
Oh, as time floats by

[Chorus]
And I wanna see the sun through her eyes
Wanna feel how she feels inside
Oh, as time floats by
Time flows by
