"Love Like Laughter" lyrics - BETH ORTON

Some of the worst wrongs get righted on three chords
Like a promise or a kiss goodbye
When the sneer on your lips is the liveliest thing
Just alive enough to die

[Chorus:]
I open my heart
In my heart, there's something telling me
To open my heart
Open my heart
Yeah, I've been blind
And all that's been lost
Is a short loop running round my mind

Love is like laughter, see it happen by chance
Like a promise be a kiss goodbye
When the smile on your lips is the liveliest thing
More alive than any sky I've seen

[Chorus:]
I open my heart
In my heart, there is something telling me
To open my heart
I open my heart
See I've been blind
And all that's been cut
Is a short loop running round my mind

[Chorus:]
I open my heart
In my heart, there's something telling me
To open my heart
I open my heart
See I've been blind
And all that's been cut
Is a short loop running round my mind

[Outro:]
It's just running round my mind
Running all the time
Running all the time
It's a short loop
A short loop
Running round my mind
