Shopping Lyrics - White Limousine - Duncan Sheik

So you wrote me a letter 

Which I thought was really kind 

I dont recall which song it was 

But there is one you really liked 

And you asked me so innocently 

Of my inspiration 

Why I write the songs I sing 

The reasons why I make them 

Nothing here is what it seems 

Risk the wreckage of your dreams 

So that you are always shopping 

To steal away the cash you're dropping 

Listen to me when I say 

Fantasies are built to fade 

There you are, youre always shopping 

Even try, there is no stopping 

Dont misunderstand me 

It always makes me smile 

When I can serenade you 

As you're rolling down the aisles 

On this journey of your soul's desire 

The paradise of goods 

Youre doing just exactly 

What I think you should 

Nothing here is what it seems 

Risk the wreckage of your dreams 

So that you are always shopping 

While you roll, you're really rocking 

Listen to me when I say 

Fantasies are built to fade 

There you are, youre always wanting 

You dont have is always haunting 

Still one thing I have to say 

My confessions not complete 

Ive made is sound as if all this 

Has nothing to do with me 

Surely is not anything 

Further from the truth 

When I have pretty things to gain 

And only useless things to lose 

Wish there were another way 

I must keep the wolves at bay 

I hope that you dont find it shocking 

Rock and roll is built on shopping 

If youre searching for my soul 

Come check out my chains of gold 

Grab your purse and let's go shopping 

For lingerie and silky stockings 

Let's go shopping together 

So that we can find ourselves 

So that we can buy ourselves 

Let's go shopping together 

'Cause we are always by ourselves 

We are always by ourselves 

Let's go shopping together 

So that we can find ourselves
