lyrics

A suitcase full of stories and a forest filled with trees,
a hope that maybe one day we can drift away with ease,
but until then i'll be the wanted and you'll be my foolish thief,
'cos that's what they want us to be.

We hid behind the oaks and swept our tracks away from view,
left problems to the makers who we never even knew,
but I know you know i've never met somebody quite like you and
you know I know you feel it too.

Well i'm the bird and you're my feathers
and we're dancing through the weather
we'll be dancing until the sun decides to show
and though I may have two left feet
you've got two right so we're complete
and they're the ones that keep on treading on our toes
yeh they're the ones who keep on treading on our toes.

We never ran away we just turned life into a trip
To find the warmth of love we never found behind the brick
we're just lonely puzzle pieces trying to find somewhere to fit
and I think I know now where that is

Well i'm the bird and you're my feathers
and we're dancing through the weather
we'll be dancing until the sun decides to show
and though I may have two left feet
you've got two right so we're complete
and they're the ones that keep on treading on our toes
yeh they're the ones who keep on treading on our toes.

Bridge

Chorus

A suitcase full of stories and a forest filled with trees
A hope that maybe one day we can drift away with ease.

Child

If not my money problem I would have bought the CD version. The moment i heared "Child" it was clear to me, that I need more. My fav is "Not enough", because it takes a different approach on beeing alone. pikolowet

Over & Out - EP
by Natalie Holmes

supported by 7 fans who also own “My Foolish Thief”

I'm always open-minded - and open-eared - for a good singer-songwriter album, especially if well-versed songwriting is paired with a strong and pleasant voice. Natalie Holmes matches this pattern just perfectly, and there's a lot more exquisite music to be discovered here, on her Bandcamp site. Sven B. Schreiber (sbs)
