Reisa L. Gerber - Sweet Little Nothings Lyrics
Sweet Little NothingsI woke up to sweet little nothings,They were circling 'round inside my headBut I did not give it a second thoughtUntil I saw it was the lady in red!And a voice from the bottom of my rubber soul,It shot up right off the top of my head,And it said,"Reisa, i don't care where you've beenor what you've been through-Albeit, I have been there, too"So I said, "Hey, could you lend me a littleMula-la-la, oooh la la,I'm short of cash today!And I'll pay you back tomorrow",But tomorrow never came!I said, "I'm gonna go to the undergroundhorserace!I'm gonna "reach out and touch"Your deejay bookie Al-And if I were you, i would not,Consider it forgotten,To "lay me down" for Barbizonin the fifth!And I said, "Hey, there, Johnny, on the spot-I think we could make it if we triedAnd he looked right through my penetratingBaby blues-And he said, "Baby, give me one goodreason why.And I said, "I can tell you right off the bat-Even though it isn't qualified,Life without you is just a poorsubstitute,For a cobalt buddy in the sky!"He said, "hey! Let's climb into my redsportscarAnd we'll hit the double white linesOn the freeway....And we'll drive all nightUntil the morning lightAnd we won't stop 'til we know theReasons why....I said, "Hey, ya' know, I was wondering,When some girl just seems towell, "turn you on"....Where do you take herAnd what do you do.....to show herThat she's really a bomb!!!!"He said...."Whooooooooo! That's a tough one,Honey, but since you really wannaKnow-I like to take her to watcha sunriseOn the rocks above the beachAbove Malibu...that golden...."And I said, "GOLDEN!!!!! Are you asking me to......you know......GOLDEN BAND???He said, "ooooops! Hold your horses, honey!Gypsy love is a roving rapture,A wontan bird that cannot be chained...And he broke down like a child of five yearsold, and he began to cry.baile me rumba, baile mi rumba!I said, "Honey, the dawn is coming,And I know you'll soon be gone.But for what it's worth to you-And I took him in my arms...I tried to love you, man."
