lyrics

I just want to be alone with you
I just want to be so sure
Just like
I wanted to do this all my life
I wanted to be brave all my life

You make me brave
You make me brave
You make me brave
You make me brave

Who gave you eyes to do that
Who gave you permission to walk in here and make me go mad
I wanted I wanted I wanted I wanted
Pencil lead and iron bases
A casual way into formal places
A bow tie, a dickie, you broke me so quickly
and never even tried

Who gave you permission to
Who gave you permission to?

It’s not the life that I’d choose
Who gave you permission to
Lick the tip of that silver spoon, who named you?
You look at me all bones and leather
There’s changes coming in the weather
I'm running from the coming storm
And hoping that silence will keep me warm

Who gave you permission to
Who gave you permission to

Be brave?
You make me brave…

(Schoolboy hands and I bet you drive a vintage Jaguar
Tell the ego of the man by the model of his car
Easy rider, air conditioned, heated seats and vinyl listened
Well-read, intellect, pillow fights in double beds,
Beer drinking, hairline shrinking, someone I once met
Someone I once met, someone I once met)
