Say Anything - Tickle Me Red Lyrics

Now I'm getting down early in the afternoon
We'd do a hundred sketchy things I swore I'd never get to do
There's a fire in you're smile, let me watch for a while
Can't keep my eyes off your legs with that dress on you

Wake me up now I need this so bad

All the drugs I could fit in my lungs
Couldn't f*ck me up half as hard as the understated one

I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for this
Waiting all my life for this

You make a blunt remark about my size
As we walk down sunset boulevard trading starry eyes
And the things that you say pierce the hide of L.A.
Watch you giggle as it spits up bile a block your way

And I melt as your top lip wrinkles with wit so nimble

Makes my ghost cling to my former coast
You extend your arm to save me from it's hungry moat

I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for this
Waiting all my life for this

You tend to laugh with childish dignity
And you tend to pretend that you didn't always see
When I psychically said "you should choose me instead"
My eyes stripped you bare right in front of me

But if you'll leave me I'll always wait here

Born (blondes?) put holes in our tongues
Wish to God I could have met you as a younger one

I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for...
I've been waiting all my life for this
Waiting all my life for this

One whole year [x4]
