Gabriel Rios - Straight Song lyrics

rate me

This is a straight song

it’s made for you

It shouldn’t take long

‘cuz that’s not what I want to do

And all I wanted

well it keeps on coming true

Why shouldn’t you?

You’ve got to die a little

if you really want to go

It’s got to hurt a little

if you really want to know

So let’s lie a little

together you and me

And be as true as true can be

He who wants to know

must surely hold

his body

As he

who holds

the door

will surely know

A showdown

I’d feel the world for you

if you weren’t doing it for me

I’d steal the girl in you

if you weren’t letting her go free

I would pretend

I would pretend to be a friend

if that was what we had to be

I’ll cross the threshold

into the lair

I’ll pat the lion on its head

I won’t despair

I won’t despair

though claws are sharp and they might tear

I will be bringing it back to you

you know I will

He who wants to know

must surely hold

his body

As

he who holds

the door

will surely know

A showdown

I’ve never been there

I want to go

But I don’t dance

so do you want to stay after the show?

For now I’ll stand here

with my back against the wall

watching everything you do
