I just flew inFrom the windy city
The windy city is mighty pretty
But they ain't got what we got
No sir'ree
They've got private lawns and public parks
Well they've got those minstrel shows
Pretty ladies with the big shot bows
They've got private lawns and private parks
I just flew in From the the windy city
The windy city is mighty pretty
But they ain't got what we got
No sir'ree
They've got private lawns and public parks
They've got private lawns and public parks
They've got private lawns and public parks

I wish I had a mango tree
In my backyard
With you standin next to me
Take the picture
From her lips I heard her say
Can I have you
Caught up on what to say
I said you do
I said you do
I said you do
Through my eyes I can see
A shooting star
Weavn its way across the sea
Somewhere from mars
Down the street we would run
To scratch our names in the path
Young and free in the sun
Wheels upon the tar
I said you do
I said you do
I said you do
I said you do

Is there a cure for this pain
Maybe I should have something to eat
But food wont take this emptiness away
I'm hungry for you my love
Well I made it through another day
In my cold room
On scraps and pieces left behind
I survive on the memory of you
All Of me is all for you
You're all I see
All of me is all for you
You're all I need
Is there a remedy for waiting
For loves victorious return
Is there a remedy for hating
Every second that I'm without you
All of me is all for you
You're all I see
All of me is all for you
You're all I need
All this life is all for love
Its the only road Ill choose
And every street and avenue
Only one will lead me back to you
One Love, One Love, One Love
One Love, One Love, One Love

I spilled the ink across the page
trying to spell your name
so i fold it up and i flick it out
paper aeroplane
It wont fly the seven seas to you
cause it didn't leave my room
but it awaits the hands of someone else
the garbage man
gotta say mmm mmm mmm (X2)
so he opens it up and reads it out
to all his friends
amongst the crowd a heart will break
and a heart will mend
walks on home he is tired from work
the letter falls from his hands
he reaches out only to catch the sky
it's gone with the wind
gotta say mmm mmm mmm (X2)
said i spilled the ink across the page
trying to spell your name
up and down there it goes
paper aeroplane
it hasn't flown the seven seas to you
but it's on its way
it goes through the hands and to someone else
to find you girl
gotta say mmm mmm mmm

So rest your head
You're all mine
And I'll stay awake
I won't go home
Let's go on holidays
To burn this town
She's my Babylon
So rest your heart
You're all mine
Because if you walk away
I'll fall on down
And bleed reddest blood
Reddest wine
She's my Babylon
No I don't want to see you gone
No I don't want to be alone
So rest your hand
You're all mine
I can't stay awake
My eyes fall down
Said I dreamed a dream
That you walk around
She's my Babylon
No I don't want to see you gone
No I don't want to be alone
No I don't want to be alone
No I don't want to be alone

Living on a diet of Chocolates & Cigarettes
I wanna call you again
Ill drink tea sometimes when its cold
This is getting old
I call you again
Still too young to fail, too scared to sail away
But one of these days Ill grow old
And Ill grow brave and Ill go
One of these days
Blowing out the candles from my cake
I choke on the smoke as I look around the room
Everybodys wishing for no more mistakes
And all that I can think about is you
Still too young to fail, to scared to sail away
But one of these days Ill grow old
And Ill grow brave and Ill go
One of these days
La da la da la da
Still too young to fail, to scared to sail away
But one of these days Ill grow old
And Ill grow brave and Ill go
One of these days
La da la da la da
