(Everything but) Her Love - Father John Misty

When I saw you I knew you were the one I want to orbit you like you're the sun But let me know before I come undone Am I the one for you I'm like a puzzle with a missing piece I got a car but didn't get the keys And only you can set my mind at ease So what am I to do I have everything but the girl I want, it's sad but true And everything but the love I need to make it through And every time I look into your eyes, that's when I realize Just how much I love you Some say lady luck is on my side And that my life has been an easy ride But they don't know how many times I cried Cause I am nothing without you I have everything but the girl I want, it's sad but true And everything but the love I need to make it through And everytime I look into your eyes, that's when I realize Just how much I love you I don't know how long I can keep it up I need a sign to make it through You gotta tell me now, you gotta let me know So what am I, what am I to do

I bet you're wondering where I've been What town I'm calling home for now And just how long I'll be there Before I turn around Truth is I finally found a place Where I can start to plant some roots Its about as close as being perfect It's got everyting but you Theres a pathway to the ocean A salty breeze blowin' And the old man down the street makes damn good wine Its got stars that shine like diamonds On the black canvas behind them And there's a sun out here that seems to always shine And I've never seen water quite so blue Its got everything but you Theres a taco stand down on the corner Serves the best cold draft beer Sometimes I order up a round Pretend that you're out here And a reggae band plays every friday We drink and dance into the night Most folks out here think I'm a local And I say that that's about right Yeah that's about right Theres a pathway to the ocean A salty breeze blowin And the old man down the street makes damn good wine It's got stars that shine like diamonds On the black canvas behind them And there's a sun out here that seems to always shine And I ain't never seen water quite so blue It's got everything but you And that's everything to me You The only thing I need, yeah There's a pathway to the ocean A salty breeze blowin' And this old man down the street makes damn good wine And I ain't never seen water quite so blue No I ain't never seen water quite so blue It's got everything but you

Far away in another place I'd give my soul just to see your face Found a note hidden in my suitcase Of everything that you just couldn't say How'd you know I needed that today? Wherever you are is where I wanna be Look around and tell me what you see Everything, everything but me No matter how many miles stand in between In my heart is where you'll be Holding on to all our dreams With everything, everything but me Looking through photographs today Different times always seem the same Then I saw a picture of your smile Something I haven't seen in a while You know the one, the one you love to hate But every time, it takes my breath away Wherever you are is where I wanna be Look around and tell me what you see Everything, everything but me No matter how many miles stand in between In my heart is where you'll be Holding on to all our dreams With everything, everything but me Do you know how much it hurts? To go and leave it all behind, leave it all behind I see you in my mind You are right there all the time Far away in another place Give my soul just to see your face Wherever you are is where I wanna be Look around and tell me what you see Everything, everything but me No matter how many miles stand in between In my heart is where you'll be Holding on to all our dreams, yeah No matter how many miles stand in between In my heart is where you'll be Holding on to all our dreams With everything, everything but me With everything, everything but me

Trouble Oh, trouble, set me free I have seen your face And it's too much, too much for me Trouble Oh, trouble, can't you see? You're eatin' my heart away And there's nothin' much left of me I have drank your wine You have made your world mine So, won't you be fair? So, won't you be fair? I don't want more of you So, won't you be kind to me? Just let me go where I'll have to go there Trouble Oh, trouble, move away I have seen your face And it's too much for me today Trouble Oh, trouble, can't you see? You have made me a wreck Now, won't you leave me in my misery? I have seen your eyes I can see death's disguise Hangin' on me Hangin' on me I am beat, I'm torn Shattered and tossed and worn Too shocking to see Too shocking to see Trouble Oh, trouble, move from me I have paid my debt Now, won't you leave me in my misery? Trouble Oh, trouble, please be kind I don't want no fight And I haven't got a lot of time

Funny girl You look so unassuming right up until The room you're captivating starts to fill With gut-busting laughter You're transformed into a five-foot Cleopatra Funny girl Your schedule's pretty crazy, doing interviews For the new live action Kathy Could you pencil in an industry outsider? Yeah, you're young, but baby, you're not getting younger Funny girl For once your timing wasn't great I must have missed you by a day But baby, things have turned out pretty good this way I don't think either of us yearns to share the stage Funny girl You seem pretty indifferent, but you knocked me out When you charmed the pants off Letterman Oh, I wish you'd flash that manic smile in my direction And let me lead you to your seat, like we were old friends Funny girl

One side says "Y'all go to hell." The other says "If I believed in God, I'd send you there." But either way we make some space In the hell that we create On both sides One side says "Kill 'em all." The other says "Line those killers up against the wall." But either way some blood is shed Thanks to our cooperation On both sides On both sides One side says "Man, take what's yours!" The other says "Live on no more than you can afford." But either way we just possess And everyone ends up with less On both sides On both sides

Chloë is a borough socialist She insists there's not much more to it Than drinks with a certain element Of downtown art criticism I benefit more than I should admit From her unscrupulous therapist How Benzedrine supposed to address Your shoplifting is anybody's guess Chloë Chloë Please don't ever change That story that continues to persist How you could have dropped the cigarette On the trip your boyfriend's canoe flipped Doesn't lose your grip on me a bit She and I, we were inseparable 'Til Ma called my East Coast uncle to Ascertain the welfare of her son Howard said, "Mary, you'd better come" Chloë Her name is Chloë And he's talking awful strange But the more they abhor you The more I adore you I would but I can't My heart don't stand a chance Of even a glance Her soul is a pitch black expanse Summer ended on the balcony She put on Flight of the Valkyries At her 31st birthday party Took a leap into the Autumn leaves

Simone writes little love, much consequence Lest the theatre's how you pay the rent A new work of some semi-memoir sits Inside the weekend book editors desk And while they have not mentioned it She must watch roses get thrown at less Oh, the indignity It was just the thing for their Q4 "Deeply funny" was the rave refrain It was just the thing for their Q4 It'll be on stands before the holidays Her sister was not much long for this world She danced as if a dancer danced, as if As if she had a body to sustain As if an audience to entertain This ironic distance kept her sane While her vessel sailed away It was all very literary And the truth was It was just the thing for their Q4 What's "deeply funny" mean anyhow? It was just the thing for their Q4 These are the stories that we need right now How could she compete? (I'm sure she wouldn't mind) With a memory such as she (but who else than I) Leigh died so many months ago (could write the story of her life?) "By now this tragedy's my own" Oh-o-oh-oh It was just the thing for their Q4 "Deeply funny" was the rave refrain It was just the thing for their Q4 It'll be on stands before the holidays It was just the thing for their Q4 The film adaptation was a total mess It was just the thing for their Q4 'Til she was outed for her privilege It was just a thing for their Q4 Can't see her brother now unsupervised It was just the thing for their Q4 Her family switched care right when she inquired
