lyrics

Ooh, You always make me feel so good,
Even with all the stupid things you say and do,
I want you, baby, I want you, want you.

Still, you make me look like such a fool.
While you stay positively cool, I go insane.
I want you baby, I do.

It'd be so easy on the silver screen,
The right song would play, and I'd know what to say.
If we had more time, we could really shine.
Yeah, we'd dance all night.
I've got you till daylight.

There're so many ways that this could go,
But you don't wanna take it slow.
I understand; Just smile, pretty, and hold my hand.
Hell if I know when it's gonna end,
I know we'll never be "just friends," I want it all.
I need you baby, I do.

It'd be so easy on the silver screen,
The right song would play, and I'd know what to say.
If we had more time, we could really shine.
Yeah, we'd dance all night.
I've got you till daylight.

And if I had the chance,
I would strike up the band,
We'd bring them all to tears and have them singing.
And then I could profess,
And friends would raise their glass,
To toast a love they wish they could believe in.

It'd be so easy on the silver screen,
The right song would play, and I'd know what to say.
If we had more time, we could really shine.
Yeah, we'd dance all night.
I've got you till daylight.

The Royalty El Paso, Texas

“Dreamy ’60's soundscapes… Like Amy Winehouse went on holiday with Vampire Weekend” is MTV Buzzworthy’s reflection on indie darlings The Royalty. Best described as "rock & soul," the band extracts its influences from the girl-groups of the Motown and Spector era, and the R&B crooners of the 1970s. ... more
