Steal It Lyrics


John Butler Trio Steal It


You got your mask on, it's only your cold eyes I see.
No, you did not break or enter
but when you're leaving you take everything.
You're loot is packed and ready
the kids are buckled in and weep,
And now I'm curled up in this empty shell
where our home it used to be.

So tell me why'd you steal it all from me
why'd you steal it all from me girl
why'd you steal it all from me
why'd you steal it all from me girl

You opened up my windows
I gave you every key to every lock.
An yes you opened 'em up one by one
Got to the end and you stepped on my heart.
You were wearing gloves when we first met
I shoulda known you were staking me out,
Yes I thought your love came freely
and now I'm paying and there is now doubt.

Because way up, way up in the sky
I don't want to fall from this deftly height
Why can't we make up, wake up tell me why
Why can't we just hold on to what we made together
I thought we'd never sever girl, instead...

You go steal it all from me
Steal it all from me girl
Why'd you steal it all from me
Steal it all from me girl, steal it all from me
Why'd you steal it all from me girl
Why'd you steal it all from me
Why'd you steal it all form me girl.
