Hannah Lyrics - Singles - Sheila Nicholls

Hannah's friends were watching 

When she met him at the end of the bar 

Hannah's friends were thinking 

That he wouldn't even make it that far 

"This is for you", he said 

Her gaze unbroken as she licked her spoon 

He put his hand in his pocket and pulled out the moon 

He gave it to her 

Her breathing stumbled and her eyes became wide 

And as she swallowed cream 

She could already feel him inside 

She'd seen similar before 

A book, a ring, a key, and more 

But never as clever and as clean and as pure 

And he said, "You're the one 

You're the only one I've been waiting for" 

So she took his eyes and trusted 

And they slipped through the door 

Texas girl in New York, don't call her naive 

Though she's seen it before, she just risks to believe 

She still has the faith in her battered ideals and she 

She still holds the courage to scale her fears 

Well, spontaneous love has crossed everyone's mind 

Most lose hope when thats not what we find 

I saw her in the morning and she was crying in the park 

She said his girlfriend came home and screamed through the dark 

She said that she called her a whore and then she spat in her face 

So, Hannah had left in silent disgrace 

And then she turned to be, she said, "Now what do I do?" 

And I witnessed her shame, how it was mine too 

And now she even calls him from Texas, she gets his machine 

He made her question herself, her worth, her esteem 

So, don't say she's the one and then forget 

Don't hand her the moon and then charge interest on debt now 

Don't give her your lines 'cause your mask may be flawless 

But you're full of shit and your campaign is coreless 

And the moon won't do if it's just a snapshot 

And hell neither will you if that's all that you got now 

Neither will you if that's all that you got now 

Neither will you if that's all that you got now 

Neither will you if that's all that you got 

Texas girl in New York, don't call her naive 

Though she's seen it all before, she just risks to believe 

Well, she still has the faith in her battered ideals and she 

She still has the courage to scale her fears 

Spontaneous love has crossed everyone's mind 

Most lose hope when thats not what we find
