lyrics

She makes me want to be clean


Come drink with us ‘till dawn,

You’ll see my good side, yeah, good side, yeah

We’ll hang out with the poet and the boy,

We’ll have some good times yeah, good times yeah

But she makes me want to be clean

Show my bright side always,

For my bright side to be real….

You know it’s not so far from the city to the sea,

We could wake up in the morning take the salt from the breeze

As the rays from the lighthouse reel my ship in,

Well, I know I won’t sink if this girl will swim

But she makes me want to be clean

Show my bright side always,

For my bright side to be real

Now the future’s looking brighter,

I’m not afraid of anything,

My head is clear, my time is mine,

I’ve got nothing to lose and nothing to hide,

But I like you and I don’t know why,

I like you and I don’t know why,

I didn’t ask you then, I haven’t asked you yet,

I couldn’t find the right time.

Walk me through the early morning empty streets,

And we’ll hang out by the bridge in the upside down city,

Listen to the dawn chorus by the Lee,

We’re looking good in water colours, you and me,

But she makes me want to be clean

Show my bright side always for my bright side to be,

She makes me want to be clean

Show my bright side always for my bright side to be…

She makes me want to be clean,

Show my bright side always for my bright side to be

She makes me want to be clean,

Show my bright side always for my bright side to be,

For my bright side to be real…

The future’s looking brighter,

I’m not afraid of anything,

My head is clear, my time is mine,

I’ve got nothing to lose and nothing to hide

But I like you and I don’t know why

I like you and I don’t know why,

I didn’t ask you then, I haven’t asked you yet,

I couldn’t find the right time.

Yeah, I like you and I don’t know why,

I like you and I don’t know why,

I didn’t ask you then, I haven’t asked you yet,

There’ll never be a better time.
