Tommy

Tommy

You said you were alone
I called you on the phone
but you didn’t pick up, I guess you must have been busy

Helping someone move
to Ballroom Avenue
You left me on the wire just waiting for you

There’s trouble in the air
You said you didn’t care
and all the while you’ve been looking at me with your cool

Cuz you’ve been around the world
and knocked down by that girl
By that bitch they call Destiny
and you know that she’s a mean girl

But I was on the side
I thought we’d have to hide
from all the other eyes that were watching you and me

You came in through the door, and you knocked me to the floor
and with your liquored lips you kissed me

And I did not know what to do
Should I kiss back at you?
Shit, now I’m all confused, but I kind of liked it too

I felt a rush of blood
Your ghost was near enough
The apparitions touched and sucked the air out of the room
So I’m asking you kindly

Tommy won’t you breathe on me?

I found myself enthralled
with your violent heart
and all your screaming fantasies deep into the night

You walk in Heaven’s aura (hush)
and you can turn me on

What with all the sounds
you turn me on to
And I am aware that I could possibly be
just a subject of your whimsicality
But if you wanna swap fantasies

Tommy won’t you breathe on me?
Tommy walk the beach with me
Tommy go to sleep with me
Tommy won’t you breathe on me?

Tommy

Why won’t you lie to me?
How could you do this to me?
Cause you know that breathing is cheating
Your secret birthday will never come again

Unless you want it
You need it, you see it
But you don’t believe it, you have to believe it

Tommy won’t you breathe on me?
Tommy walk the beach with me
Tommy go to sleep with me
Tommy won’t you bleed on me?

Tommy won’t you breathe on me?
