"Twilight" lyrics - ELLIOTT SMITH

ELLIOTT SMITH
"Twilight"

Haven't laughed this hard in a long time
Better stop now before I start crying
Go off to sleep in the sunshine
I don't wanna see the day when it's dying

She's a sight to see, she's a-good to me
But I'm already somebody's baby
She's a pretty thing and she knows everything
But I'm already somebody's baby

You don't deserve to be lonely
But those drugs you got won't make you feel better
Pretty soon you'll find it's the only
Little part of your life you're keeping together

I'd be nice to you if I could make it through
But you're already somebody's baby
I could make you smile if you stayed a while
But how long will you stay with me, baby?

Because your candle burns too bright
I almost forgot it was twilight
Even if I think that you are right
Well, I'm tired of being down, I got no fight

You're wonderful, and it's beautiful
But I'm already somebody's baby
And if I went with you I'd disappoint you too
I'm already somebody's baby
Already somebody's baby
