Molly Sarle Karaoke Angel
I walked into a bar and gave my heart away
To the first stranger I met or could remember my name
Got up on the stage and sang at the top of my lungs
It's so easy
It's so easy to fall in love
Mike walked over
He was picking up what I was putting down
He said, "Honey, I am only gonna disappoint you somehow"
Oh, Mike, quit talking to me like
You're saying something I didn't already know
I can tell by the beauty of the furrow in your brow
You've been anointed by disappointment many a night
And it might even be something you like
I pull up a stool next to Jacob
He is sitting up at the bar
He likes to watch karaoke and to sing to himself in his car
I say, "Hey, Jacob, when are you gonna get up and give us one?"
"I was not born to give my heart away to strangers, hon."
Jacob's already seen the most beautiful things
And he knows they have nothing to do with his dreams
I turn to my right and there is Tommy
He's drinking again
Sharpening his soul with the alcohol, like he's gonna need it
Or something
I say, "Hey, Tom, what are you waiting on?"
He says, "Nothing. Something to give."
"Why don't you give it to me? I've been waiting patiently."
Patience is infinite
Patience is infinite
Patience
Tommy's on the stage singing "Dream Angel Forces" and
She wants a baby more than anything
And I think Tommy will give it to her if he can
I am going home alone again tonight
I don't know much about love, but the view
Well, the view sure is nice
