Gravity Lyrics - Rickie Lee Jones

There are wounds that stir up the force of gravity 

And a cold that will wipe the hope from your eyes 

Young girl standing underneath the L train 

Standing there, watching the trains go by 

You think that nobody knows where you are girl 

You think that nobody knows how this feels 

Alone, in a world of your own there you are girl 

The small things float to the top of gravity 

Gravity 

Now I'm telling you where it is 

Gravity 

We walk in easy snakes 

Through the roulette rattling of the ethyl 

And now the arson smell of moon 

Polishes a newsstand they empty the gas can 

The watch the fire if there are three girls running 

There are three girls running nowhere 

From remedies, that you call random, we call by name 

And ask them to explain why 

I heard somebody hush up 

Don't say nothing, I thought I heard someone 

Well we walk when we want to go 

Nobody's gonna be there 

Seen somebody, somebody 

Be quiet 

Nobody's there 

Nobody 

I could not say no to the light of my desire 

I'm not asking so much 

But you roll call the passion 

His lips 

(No) 

His back 

(No) 

His face 

(No, no, no) 

I'm not asking so much 

Try to imagine another planet, another sun 

Where I don't look like me 

And everything I do matters 

Where you are, girl 

In your green paint 

With a pin to pull 

At the fingertips of gravity 

Gravity 

Well I'm telling you where it is 

Gravity
