Sherwood - Alley Cat lyrics

rate me

Oh I've been going through a hell of a time

Making sense of all that you left behind

When I arrange it into columns and lines

I always think it's adding up, but it never does

So in the morning maybe I'll be alright

And through the day I'll prepare for the fight

With a fever on a Saturday night

Cause this is giving me the shakes and butterflies, oh

And if you don't stop running you can never breathe

When everything you want is everything you see

But when it comes to decision baby, him or me

Well I hope you can feel the need

What made you an alley cat scratching me?

You dig deep with your nails and flash your teeth

And run off to where your next big meal could be

What made you an alley cat scratching me?

You dig deep with your nails and flash your teeth

And run off because you must be tired of me

Run off because you must be tired of me

And there's a scene I will always replay

At the moment when my hand touched your face

I could see your eyes turning away

But I've been standing my ground with you babe

And if you don't stop running you can never breathe

When everything you want is everything you see

But when it comes to decision baby, him or me

Well I hope you can feel the need

What made you an alley cat scratching me?

You dig deep with your nails and flash your teeth

And run off to where your next big meal could be

What made you an alley cat scratching me?

You dig deep with your nails and flash your teeth

And run off because you must be tired of me

Run off because you must be tired of me

And now I fall in love with somebody everyday

As they step aside when I'm walking by, or smile at something I say

But I promised you it would never get in the way

Of stability but the joke's on me

cause you were the one who got carried away

Oh, you got carried away

Well he carried you away, oh

Carried you away, oh

Carried you away

Carried you away
