Two Cents - Big Sleep

(Verse) He's like a whip that doesn't crack You'll take a sip and you're on your back Those big blue eyes are hard to reach So impossible, it makes you me Like a guitar that cries for days Seduces you in a thousand ways You feel his dreams, now you're uptight It makes any girl we can out of sight (Chorus) 'Cause he's not undercover, he walks past his lovers And the others know there's no defense There is no evidence He creates an illusion that leads to confusion And you give up your common sense Well that's my two cents (Verse) He's like a wall that's made of steel Too cold to touch but not much to feel His silent smile he shares with you The tricks of the trade, he's glad to lose Into thin air he disappears Gives one last look and frozen leaf Your heart for sure is good as gone Love's a TV set that says it's nothing on (Chorus) 'Cause he's not undercover, he walks past his lovers And the others know there's no defense There is no evidence He creates an illusion that leads to confusion And you give up your common sense Well that's my two cents (Bridge) There's no behind with the problems of a glint All the coins dissipate when there are no fingerprints Don't retrace your steps 'Cause his story's letting you A one man casino If you spin the wheel you lose (Chorus) 'Cause he's not undercover, he walks past his lovers And the others know there's no defense There is no evidence He creates an illusion that leads to confusion And you give up your common sense Well that's my two cents

Looking for spare change To put gas in my car But what I've found Won't get me very far Seems lately the low times Have hit me pretty hard 'Cause I'm a few cents short From getting to where you are I'm a few cents short Of holding you in my arms And a few cents short Of keeping us from falling apart Ain't it funny how the money Can change our lives 'Cause I'm a few cents short From losing you tonight So I walked to a pay phone down the road But a few dimes and a nickel is all I had The operator wants more money To place my call But I'm a few cents short If that don't beat it all I'm a few cents short Of holding you in my arms And a few cents short Of keeping us from falling apart Ain't it funny how the money Can change our lives 'Cause I'm a few cents short From losing you tonight I'm a few cents short Of holding you in my arms And a few cents short Of keeping us from falling apart Sure is funny how the money Can change our lives 'Cause I'm a few cents short From losing you tonight Yes I'm a few cents short And I'll be losing you tonight
