Ivory Songtext
von ARLO

Take me out of the woods, take me far away
I′m still tripping on words I didn't say
It′s been a long time coming but I'm still not saved
So I'll take my love, halfway

I′m tired of the small talk
Tired of the tears at night
I′ve never been a brave heart
Never been a leading light

Cause I'm like Ivory
Had hands all over me
But I′m better off on my own
They say I'm Ivory
Look high and low for me
You know you′ll never find my heart at home
Cause I've been here too many times before
And a broken heart is harder to ignore
If it′s Ivory, locked up inside of me
I think I'm better off on my own, on my own


All the money in the world couldn't buy me grace
Or replace the need to fake a smile
Cause I′m cold to the bone with a fragile face
I can taste the salt in the water
Guess I′m in the deep end

I'm tired of the small talk
Tired of the tears at night
I′ve never been a brave heart
Never been a leading light

Cause I'm like Ivory
Had hands all over me
But I′m better off on my own
They say I'm Ivory
Look high and low for me
You know you′ll never find my heart at home
Cause I've been here too many times before
And a broken heart is harder to ignore
If it's Ivory, locked up inside of me
I think I′m better off on my own, on my own

On my o-o-own

I′ve been losing sleep
Thinking about losing sleep
Let's leave it out for your sake
If it means heartbreak


But I′ll stay Ivory (Over me)
I'm better off on my own (Over me, Ivory)
With hands all over me (Over me)
You know you′ll never find my heart at home (Over me)
Cause I've been here too many times before
(A broken heart is harder to ignore)
But I′ll stay Ivory (Over me)
I think I'm better off on my own, on my own
