TEN WOMEN The Lyrics

SHE COMES ON (K. Hunter / Wire Train)


Prayin`
She`s been layin`
Across the face
Of a dangerous fall
Playin`
She`s been
Gyrating
When keeping still would kill
She will call
When passion kills my train of thought
And nerve is all I`ve got

Baby she comes on
Yeah she comes on
Wow baby she comes on

Waitin`
She`s been anticipating
The face of a dangerous fall
Sleeping
She`s been
Creeping
When keeping still would kill she will call
When passion kills my train of thought
And nerve is all I`ve got

Baby she comes on
Yeah she comes on
Wow baby she comes on

Taking her back to your place
And you know and you say you don`t know man
You`ve been lyin` for so long
Her ribbons and bows may have fell to the floor
But man you don`t know
Baby don`t break no more

Yeah well she comes on
Yeah well she comes on
Wow baby she comes on
She comes on
Yeah she comes on
I said she comes on
She comes on
Yeah she comes on


TAKE ME BACK (K. Hunter / Wire Train)


In the city of angels I was lost and I withdrew
I was diggin` the scars born of the flowers that I grew

Take me back
Take me back
Where I

Take me back
Take me back
Where I belong

And if I show you
Say you won`t take it
Take it away
And if I know you
Maybe you`ll stay

I was sitting in cars beside the roses I saw you
I thought I did to myself what no one else could ever do

Take me back
Take me back
Where I

Take me back
Take me back
Where I belong

And if I show you
Say you won`t take it
Take it away
Wherever you`re going
I will go there

Hey
Take me back
Take me back
Where I
Take me back
Take me back
Where I belong

And if I show you
Say you won`t take it
Take it away
And if I know you
Maybe you`ll take it
Take it away
And if I show you
Maybe you`ll take it
Take it away
And if I know you
Maybe you`ll
Maybe you`ll
Maybe you`ll stay
Maybe you`ll stay
Maybe you`ll stay
Maybe you`ll stay
Maybe you`ll stay
Maybe you`ll stay
Maybe you`ll stay
Aha ha
Oh ho
Aha ha
La la lalla la la
La la lalla la la


DIVING (K. Hunter / Wire Train)


Her precious bones lay like the coral sen
In visions of her broken memories
The hallway and hotel just stare and breath
The morning means Marie will take her leave

And she goes diving
She goes diving
For shelter from out lyin`
She goes diving
She goes diving
She goes diving
For shelter from out lyin`
She goes diving

The anailbox and the maids on River street
Remind her of the woman
Girlishly
The hallway and hotel just stare and breath
The morning means Marie will take her leave

And she goes diving
Diving
For shelter from out lyin`
She goes diving
Yeah well she goes diving
She goes diving
For shelter from out lyin`
She goes diving
Yeah well she goes diving
Diving
Diving
She goes diving
For shelter from out lyin`
She goes diving

Well the truth is hard to find
When you read the tale of mine
So you go to take a dive


SHE`S A VERY PRETTY THING (K. Hunter)


She put his ring to her finger
She put her wrist to the blade
She watches the clock now and wonders
Just when
Will she be
Saved
She wears his suit to the cleaners
She wishes her tattooes would change
She arranges herself on the canvas
But who
Will she get
For the paint

All along the bowline
They sing her melody
She`s a very pretty thing
She will never be denied
She`s a very pretty thing
Her smile knows what the river knows
And I don`t know why
She keeps whispering

Her phantom glory is fading
She melts from the frescoes to floor
The bread in a vault he`s been saving
The wine
He licks from the floor

All along the bowline
They sing her melody
She`s a very pretty thing
And she will never be denied
She`s a very pretty thing
Her smile knows what the river knows
And I don`t know why
She keeps whispering

She`s a very pretty thing


BREAKWATER DAYS (K. Hunter / Wire Train)


Esra Pound and all the junior jumping off bridge Queens
Wondered what`s the diff between a river and a dream
But you can`t stand on high heels in a great winter northwest
Of this I can be sure
And the rain
It fell like China
Smashin at your feet

Breakwater days
Breakwater days

Jackie and the swimteam and all the associated sexual needs
Wondered why her boyfriend wouldn`t give her no more weed
Standin` there in those high heels
Uh huh
I remember you
And her toes
Were spread by cotton
While her fingers
Laid that paint

Breakwater days
Breakwater days
Breakwater days
Breakwater

You can see the sun and moon
You can see the rain again
On a breakwater day
Sun and wind
Winter and rain
Rain will fall
You can see the autumn on the gound
And the leaves were red
And her eyes were green
Wait for it
Live now wait for it
Live wait live wait live wait live

Break
Water days
Break
Water days
Break
Water days
Break
Water
Wait for it live now wait for it
Breakwater

Break
Water days
Break
Water days
Break
Water days
Break
Water days
Break
Water days
Break
Water days


SHE`S GOT YOU (K. Hunter / Wire Train)


She`s got verve
And a barbituate attitude
Treble just like daggers she don`t
Break the surface when she moves and baby

She`s got you
She`s got you

She`s got nerve
And a flat that`s built for two
Double talking bed and breakfast chemicals unload your head and baby

She`s got you
She`s got you
She`s got you

She`s got you

Slip past her doorway there and bow your head
Remember every word she
Said
Holdin` you nowhere
She`s got you
But she`s
Not
There

She`s got words
And visions so obscure
Images of everything you thought you really needed
To but baby

She`s got you
And she`s got you
She`s got you
She`s got you
And she`s got
You


MERCY MERCY (K. Hunter / Wire Train)


Standing on the bridge at midnight
Flowers and her gloves in hand
Seldom said and no one knows
But mercy didn`t seem to be her friend
Never will again she said

Amusement park expressions
And the smiles they hide behind
Never doubted for a second
That a smile wasn`t something to hide behind
Never will again she sighed

Mercy mercy me
Mercy mercy mercy mercy me
Mercy mercy me
Mercy mercy mercy mercy me

Waiting for the bust
The cops are fooling with their badges
Money says the slap and tickle
Maybe she would love to lie again
Never will again she said

Mercy mercy me
Mercy mercy mercy mercy me
Mercy mercy me
Mercy mercy mercy mercy me

Mercy mercy me
Mercy mercy mercy mercy me
Mercy mercy me
Mercy mercy mercy mercy me


CERTAINLY NO ONE (K. Hunter / Wire Train)


Since you been here
All of my losses
Don`t seem as near
They fade before you dear
And if I do
Disappear
I would be
Lyin` now to all that I hold dear

I would paint ships upon the sea
I would paint planes above the fields
I would do anything
Not to let you leave me

Since you been here
All the old women
Down on the market
Give me flowers for your sheets
They see in you
The Mary in you
They give me
Rosaries to guard you in your sleep

I would paint ships upon the sea
I would paint planes above the fields
I would do anything
Not to let you leave me

Time
Only time
Waits for no one
And you
Certainly
Are not no one

I would paint ships upon the sea
I would paint planes above the fields
I would do anything
Not to let you leave me
I would do anything
Not to let you leave me

I would do anything
Not to let you leave me


THE HOLLOW SONG (K. Hunter / Wire Train)


They walk so groovily
Yeah your beds look good
I can smile so stupidly
And I think I should
Wrap your hands around my fingers
Rap your garland
Rap the girl
You can buy them wedding dresses
You can be my trial
I said
I said

The time will come again
Time will come again
But I won`t be there

See the grey cat there
Cirdening her tail
There is nothing else
Why the world would there

Wrap your hands around my fingers
Rap your garland
Rap the girl
You can buy them wedding dresses
You can be my trial
And I said
And I said

The time will come again
The time will come again
The time will come again
But I won`t be there

I
I like the
Hollow
Like the
Angels
Angels like
Hollow
La la la la la

The time will come again
The time will come again
The time will come again
The time will come a

The time will come again
But me I said I said
Everything is alright with no worry

Ooh

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah


TOO LONG ALONE (K. Hunter / Wire Train)


Only alone
Her wrists both broken
She stood inside his overcoat
And stared in the dark at so much nothing
Staring back at her

She keeps him warm when she gets lonely
She keeps him to herself
She sings her prayers and she goes to him
She just might learn to love herself

Too long alone
Behind the lies you`re told
Too long alone
Behind the doors you close
You`re searching for a sense of yourself
And she`s dying to be
Close

Because the sun is only sometimes
Because the moons are long
Because forgiveness was his weapon
We guard the cross we`re on
She keeps a saviours bridge light burning
He keeps the cabin warm
They sit alone in so much quiet
Never the calm without the storm

Too long alone
Behind the lies you`re told
Too long alone
Behind the doors you close
You`re searching for a sense of yourself
And she`s dying to be
Close

And she`d be dying to be here
Too long alone
Behind the lies you`re told
Too long alone
Behind the doors you close
You`re searching for a sense of yourself
And she`s dying to be
Close

Ooh man
Your hands are pacing
Too long alone

Dying to be close
And when she`s coming to be close
And she`s dying to be close now
Now I`m waiting for...
