GIVING UP - INGRID MICHAELSON

what if we stop having a ball?
what if the paint chips from the wall?
what if there's always cups in the sink?
what if im not what you think i am?

what if i fall further than you?
what if you dream of somebody new?
what if i never let you in?
chase you with a rolling pin?
well, what if i do?

'cause i am giving up
i am making passes
and i'm giving up
on half empty glasses
and i'm giving up
on greener pastures
i am giving up.

what if our baby comes in after nine?
what if your eyes close before mine?
what if you lose yourself sometime?
i'll be the one to find you, safe in my heart.

'cause i am giving up
i am giving up, for you.

YOU AND I - INGRID MICHAELSON

don't you worry there, my honey
we might not have any money
but we've got our love to pay the bills

maybe i think you're cute and funny
maybe i wanna do what bunnies do with you,
if you know what i mean

oh, let's get rich
and buy our parents houses in the south of france
let's get rich
and buy everyone nice sweaters
and teach them how to dance
let's get rich
and build our house on a mountain
making everybody look like ants
from way up there, you and i, you and i.

well, you might be a bit confused,
and you might be a little bit bruised
but baby,
how we spoon like nobody else.
so i will help you read those books,
you will soothe my worried looks,
and we will put lonesome on the shelf.

DIE ALONE - INGRID MICHAELSON

i woke up this morning
with a funny taste in my head
speckled some butter over my wholegrain bread
something tastes different,
maybe its my tongue
something tastes different,
suddenly i'm not so young.

i'm just a stranger,
even to myself.
a re-arranger of the proverbial bookshelf,
don't be a fool, girl,
tell him you love him.
don't be a fool, girl,
you're not above him.

i never thought i could love anyone but myself
now i know,
i can't love anyone but you.
you make me think that
maybe i won't die alone
maybe i won't die alone

what have i become?
something soft and really quite dumb.
because i've fallen,
so far away from the place i've started from.
