No more
Madeline Peyroux Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You ain't gonna bother me
No more
Nohow
Love just goes so far
No more
Woke up this morining and found
No more
Not now
Never felt so good before
You're down to my size
It's over and done
So honey, step down from your throne
That look in your eyes
Don't bother me none
Can take you or leave you alone
From my window
Skys ain't grey
No more
Not now
Here's the day
That I've been waiting for
Got only one heart
One heart with no spares
Must save it for loving
Somebody who cares
So you ain't gonna bother me
No more, no more
Got only one heart
One heart with no spares
Must save it for loving
Somebody who cares
So you ain't gonna bother me
No more, no more
