Howling Bells (aka Waikiki) Lyrics
"It Ain't You"

I hear your voice on the telephone
There's a picture of your face wherever I go
On a cover of a magazine
Yeah we could be such a beautiful thing

By satellite or the radio
There's a thousand ways I could let you know
You're the king and I'm the queen
Oh it could be such a glorious thing

Let's go

Everybody wants to know your name
You're a ______ kid, you never asked for fame
Untouchable I hear them say
I know those eyes, I'll find a way

You won't save me
Yeah you can't break me
Yes it's true
Darling it ain't you

Every night you put me to sleep
With your lullabies and your heartfelt dream
I know every damn word to beat
I know you wrote it only thinking of me

By satellite or the radio
There's a thousand ways I could let you know
You're the king and I'm the queen
Oh it could be such a beautiful thing

You won't save me
Yeah you can't break me
Yes it's true
Darling it ain't you

Everybody wants to know your story
You travel far for a little glory
These are roads I won't go
Every light wants to shine on your name
Every kiss wants to flow your way
These are games I don't play

You won't save me
Yeah you can't break me
Yes it's true
Darling it ain't you
