lyrics

Bend Over Backwards - Words and Music by Douglas Osborne

It will take more than three words to teach you what love can be
i’d bend over backwards to get you to stay here with me

crying time in the city of angel’s dreams
wide awake, I don’t know how you sleep without me
but the morning soon will be here
another day another chance you’ll be here

It will take more than three words to teach you what love can be
i’d bend over backwards to get you to stay here with me

lost at lunch on a plate is a poker face watching itself
overworked, i can’t play that i’m anything beyond all help
tonight’s sunset will be quick
loneliness never misses a trick

It will take more than three words to teach you what love can be
i’d bend over backwards to get you to stay here with me

i’d run your dishwasher and clean all your clothes for free
i’d stand naked in newport singing nearer my god to thee
i’d get shakespeare and bacon to pose next to your christmas tree
It will take more than three words to teach you what love can be
i’d bend over backwards to get you to stay here with me
