Lyrics Newton Faulkner

Newton Faulkner

Lipstick Jungle

She said, "I wanna live in a lipstick jungle

I wanna find what I'm searching for

I'm tired of rolling on soul and thunder

I just want something of my own"

I've been thinking

And I've been known to think too much

I've been drinking

And it's about time that I stopped

I've been sinking

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 go

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"

I've been thinking

And I've been known to think too much

I've been drinking

And it's about time that I stopped

I've been sinking

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

And I wanna see the sun through her eyes

Wanna feel how she feels inside

Oh, as time floats by, time floats by

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 as time floats by

And I wanna see the sun through her eyes

Wanna feel how she feels inside

Oh, as time floats by, time flows by

To love and hold, she's burning cold

The lights are on but she's not home

When the wind blows like a rolling stone

I'll follow her, 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 explodes, it's feeling old

Tired of excuses, keep on pushing me out of control

Hey, I wanna see the sun through her eyes

Wanna feel how she feels inside

Oh, as time floats by

And I wanna see the sun through her eyes

Wanna feel how she feels inside

Oh, as time floats by, time flows by
