Lyrics

Of all the fishes in the sea
So ghostly, white, and glittering
Nobody's ever stole my heart
And took it down to the ocean dark
Nobody's ever meant that much to me
Judge and my jury, hear my plea
No woman's ever held the reins on me
No warden's ever held that key
Not a soul on Cell Block Three
Nobody but her come to set me free
I rattle on for miles
Put it on a page
You let me tap away
And I'll rattle on for days and days and days
Nobody hits home the way ya do
Nobody makes sense out of my blues
Nobody makes me laugh that hard
Or hurts me so till I see stars
Nobody holds a candle up to you
Nobody knows best how to shine my crown
Or the ease it takes to knock it down
Nobody's ever been that true
None of the funkies on the midnight crew
I found something there that I'm afraid to lose
I rattle on for miles
Put it on a page
You let me tap away
And I'll rattle on for days and days and days
Nobody's gonna piss me off so bad
It's a certain power that you have
Never one to just recoil
'Fore ya bring my blood to a boil
Nobody like a lover makes you feel so sad
Nobody like a lover
Nobody like a lover makes ya feel so sad
