Drunk On A Flight Album Lyrics by Eloise

Drunk On A Flight

Oh, oh, oh, oh

We broke up when we woke up
'Cause it had to end
We couldn't speak from the pain
Had to jump on the plane and pretend, hmm

Well, I got so drunk on that flight
Couldn't tell day from night
But I didn't want to
I'm not me without you
And since we split the sheets
In every man I meet I look for you

You used to stroke my cheek
When I spoke French to you
But then you would make a fight, bring up some blurry night
And what it meant to you, oh

We used to fight for the sport
And then when we get bored
We just make up again
With a hint of resentment
And since we split the sheets
In every man I meet I look for you

I look for you, ooh, oh-hoo
I look for you, ooh, oh-oh-oh, mm

I, you, ooh, oh-oh-oh
Ah, ah, ah, you, ooh, oh-oh-oh, oh

I got so drunk on that flight
Couldn't tell day from night
But I didn't want to
I'm not me without you
And since we split the sheets
In every man I meet I look for you

Make It Better

Well, we'd had a couple drink the day we had that fight
We got all riled up and we screamed the whole night
'Til the sun came up
Then we'd had enough
'Cause all you ever do is push me away
And the more you do the less I wanna stay
When you come back
And you will come back

So make it better
Don't start a fight
Who cares whether
We were wrong or we were right

You've been acting kinda distant in the last few days
So I lost my mind while I gave you some space
To decompress
And sort through our mess
You've been going to dinner parties acting like a ghost
Drinking cheap champagne and flirting with the host
Asking when she's free
While you're missing me

You've made your point now
Don't start a fight
Who cares whether
We were wrong or we were right

Make it better
Make it better
Make it better
Make it better
Make it better
Make it better
Make it better
Make it better

Forgive You

I know things got pretty heated
Yeah, you pulled my strings
I think you needed to let it all out
Say it out loud, to set you free

Oh, and we always knew
When it came to me and you
Someone's heart would get broken
We couldn't guess whose
But somewhere down the line
It would be both yours and mine

'Cause no matter what you do
I will forgive you

You've been drinking
And I heard through your friends that you've been thinking
We are near the end
But when it's just you and me
It's hard to believe that you want out

See whatever you put me through
I will forgive you

I will forgive you
I will forgive you
I will forgive you

So here, on the cliff we've stopped
Pull me in, push me off
The unforgivable truth
Is I still forgive you

Pretend

I broke both our hearts
And I meant what I said
But before we part
Could I get in your bed

You brought out a better me
Without you who will I be
'Cause I ain't stuck but I ain't free

Can we just pretend
That I didn't make a mess of us?
In my defence
I was holding on to what's left of us
No, I shouldn't stay tonight
But I need to know you'll be alright
Can we just pretend
And spend one more night, now we know it's the end?

When we said goodbye
And mourned a younger us
I heard the angels cry
As I got on my bus

Feel you in a steady breeze
Look for you in cherry trees
I'm still your girl in dungarees

Can we just pretend
That I didn't make a mess of us?
In my defence
I was holding on to what's left of us
No, I shouldn't stay tonight
But I need to know you'll be alright
Can we just pretend
And spend one more night, now we know it's the end?
One more night, now we know

Can we just pretend
That I didn't make a mess of us?
In my defence
I was holding on to what's left of us
No, I shouldn't stay tonight
But I need to know you'll be alright
Can we just pretend
And spend one more night, now we know it's the end?

Friends Who Kiss

Conversations
Layers we shed
Relationships that we fled
Because we thought we knew best, then

If I knew then
What I know now
It'd ruin all the ways
How we grew into what we are now
And truth is

Some loves weren't meant to be had
Only to be felt
And I couldn't love you
Anymore than I do
But love isn't in love
Let's just call it was it is
I know you know all of this
We're just friends who kiss

Once in a while
I tend to think back and smile
That makes me cry
Don't ask why
We fell apart
'Cause truth is

Some loves go on and last
Some loves end like this
And I couldn't love you
Anymore than I do
But love isn't in love
Let's just call it was it is
I know you know all of this
I know you know all of this
'Cause we're just friends

Therapist

I don't wanna talk anymore
We've discussed your problems before
I don't wanna talk about the issues that you have with your dad
Or the insecurities that you may or may not have
I'm sorry if my lack of empathy makes you sad

But I'm not a therapist
I'm not a specialist
I can't untangle this kind of web
When will you realize that
It's too much pressure and
I can't tuck you in when it's time for bed?
It's time I said

You're a big boy now and I can't hold your hand
Mmm, acting like a boy, but I fell for a man
I don't wanna talk about your mummy issues if that's alright
I miss the passion that we had when we used to fight
I miss the friend I had in you
Can we keep it light?

'Cause I'm not a therapist
I'm not a specialist
I can't untangle this kind of web
When will you realize that
It's too much pressure and
I can't tuck you in when it's time for bed

You need to get a grip
Or maybe an analyst
Who could give you some peace of mind
Anyone else but me
Could give you some clarity
And I'm sorry if that's unkind
But it's on my mind

I'm not a therapist
I'm not a specialist
I can't untangle your kind of web
When will you realize that
It's too much pressure and
I can't tuck you in when it's time for bed

You need to get a grip
Or maybe an analyst
Who could give you some peace of mind
Anyone else but me
Could give you some clarity
And I'm sorry if that's unkind
But it's on my mind

I Take It Back

I let the tears run right down my face as I watched you go
You just run away from me and your insecurities because it's all you know
When you got back into bed with me I saw someone in your eyes
But you started up again, the cycle never ends and neither do the lies

So I think it's time to go back home
Think we're better on our own

But my flight's about to take off any second now
The seatbelt signs are on, my signal's running out
Oh, you know that I'm scared of heights
Even tried to miss my flight
Now I'm 30,000 feet above the ground
I tried to watch a movie just to drown it out
Oh, I know that I said you're trash
But just in case my plane should crash, I take it back

I heard you screaming my name at the thunder the night I walked
I could turn back easily
But you take it out of me
And you don't know how to talk

Mm, you broke my heart a million times
You stole all of my best lines
I gave every ounce of me
And you gave me anxiety

My flight's about to take off any second now
The seatbelt signs are on, my signal's running out
Oh, you know that I'm scared of heights
Even tried to miss my flight
Now I'm 30,000 feet above the ground
I tried to watch a movie just to drown it out
I know that I said you're trash
But just in case my plane should crash, I take it back

Take it back
Take it back
Take it back

Cold As The Sea

Who do you want me to be?
'Cause the girl that you met isn't me
I've played millions of parts
And took my lovers' hearts
With two hands as cold as the sea

Where do I start, where does "she" end
I can't tell the difference so I'll just pretend
And if you broke a string
I'd learn how to sing
With my heart as cold as the sea

In Another Year

The same old church bells ring to wake me up
The same old walls around my coffee cup
You come downstairs and switch the TV on
Before I know it another day has gone

The same old journey to the corner shop
The same old man who drops the paper off
Just like Bill Murray on Groundhog Day
Except I'm watching all the seasons change

I, I know you've seen it all
Every mountain top, and penny drop and waterfall
Oh I, I wanna jump a cliff
Wanna swim across and go get lost in the world's abyss
But then I get the fear
I'm still getting out of here
Just in another year

I saw some photos in a magazine
Of all the places I have never been
The only photo that we have of us
Is on the mantelpiece gathering dust

Oh I, I know you've seen it all
Every mountain top, and penny drop and waterfall
And I, I wanna feel alive
I've got bones to break, mistakes to make before I die
So let me make it clear
I'm still getting out of here
Just in another year

I, I'm gonna see it all
Every mountain top, and penny drop and waterfall
And I, I'm more than terrified
To not have you to show me to the world outside
I got my ticket out of here, I gotta disappear
I'll see you in a year

Vanilla Tabacco

I ran my fingers through your hair
And I knew that we were in trouble then
No need for words when there's sex in the air
I can taste you on my body when you're not there

You leave love bruises on my thighs
You clench your jaw when you catch my eye
I stare right back and we sway all night
And I swear I saw our freckles in the sky

Daydreaming about your lips
Your hands all on my hips
So give me a little kiss on my nose
I wanna feel like I'm your only
And I want you close enough to smoke me
So pour yourself a drink and come to me

It's been this way since the night we met
Lying in bed smoking cigarettes
Passion and romance and that summer sweat
Give me love and time and energy and head

Daydreaming about your lips
Your hands all on my hips
So give me a little kiss on my nose
I wanna feel like I'm your only
And I want you close enough to smoke me
So pour yourself a drink and come to me

Daydreaming about your lips
Your hands all on my hips
So give me a little kiss on my nose
I wanna feel like I'm your only
And I want you close enough to smoke me
So pour yourself a drink and come to me

Giant Feelings

When I gave an inch, you took a mile
But I'd never flinch I'd sit and smile
When you push your luck you push me away
And if I was stuck you'd beg me to stay
Why'd you let me fall in love with you
If you knew what you put me through
And now you're off to find somebody new

And I'm stuck with all these giant feelings for you
When'd you get to be so damn cruel?
All these giant f*cking feelings I've wasted on you
Even made the clouds shed a tear
And I think it's gonna rain all year

When you love me then you love me right
But you only love me in the night
I just held onto the better things
Ignored the mask and the puppet strings
Why'd you let me go to bed with you?
And let me say the things I said to you?
You're probably onto someone new

And I'm stuck with all these giant feelings for you
When'd you get to be so damn cruel?
All these giant f*cking feelings I've wasted on you
Even made the clouds shed a tear or two
Well, I hope it f*cking rains on you
Hope it f*cking rains on you

Tired Now

Oh, baby, don't cry
Your heart's on my mind
And although it wasn't right
We fought a good fight
But I'm tired now

I'm too young to stay
And I need my own space
And at the end of the day
I just felt out of place
So I'm bowing out

Well, I just hope you know that I was broken when you found me
And all of my problems, you can't solve them 'cause they drown me
When it's all said and done, God we had fun
But I'm tired now

If you need some space
I'll clear out our place
You're hurting right now
But soon you'll see how I felt in the end

Well, I just hope you know that I was broken when you found me
And all of my problems, you can't solve them 'cause they drown me
When it's all said and done, God we had fun
But I'm tired now
