Yuri-G
PJ Harvey · 4-Track Demos [1993]
Hey there, Luna
I'd like to, tell ya
How sad am I?
So love-sick
I could die
Needing.. Water
My neck's stiff
My head hurts
Been Looking up.. All night
Looking up, oh she's so bright
She's so white
She's so clean
I'm telling you
She's everything
I'd give it all
My sorry eyes
Give Just everything she's got me so mesmerized
Yeah I wish I was Yuri-G
It's just the things that she does to me
Yeah I wish I was Yuri-G
Bring back my memory
Told by, Doctor
To make a fever
Needles Sticking Out
She'll be your luna
I stuck them in all clean
I stuck them in a mile
I drove her down to me
I drove her with a smile
I'd give it all you see
I'd give my sorry eyes
Give just everything she's got me so mesmerized
Yeah I wish I was Yuri-G
It's just the things that she does to me
Yeah I thought I was Yuri-G
Bring back my memory
I stuck them in all clean
I stuck them in a mile
I drove her down to me
I drove her with a smile
I'd give it all you see
I'd give my sorry eyes
Give just everything she's got me so mesmerized
Yeah I wish I was a Yuri-G
It's just the things that she does to me
Yeah I thought I was Yuri-G
Bring back my memory
Yeah I wish I was Yuri-G
I'd let her walk all over me
Yeah I thought I was Yuri-G
Bring back my memory
Bring back my memory
