Maria Daines ~ I’m On To You
‘I’m On To You’
As far as I know
You say she’s a friend
As far as I know
You’re at it again
Telling me lies
You’re so good, it’s true
But there’s a look in your eyes
And I’m on to you
I’m on to the signs
Your touch now so cold
Parallel lines
Dirt in the gold
You had me in style
All shiny and new
Oh it’s been a while
But I’m on to you
I’m on to the cheating
I’m on to the lies
The luxury fleeting
Time to break ties
Oh I’m on the liquor
The smoke and the blues
The flame is a flicker
Cos I’m on to you
You say she means nothing
Just a woman you know
Oh yeah darling
The stories you told
You forget I know well
The man that you are
I hear all the bells
The whistles and stars
The late night drinks
That go on for days
The times you rethink
The way you behave
It’s already too late
So don’t trouble the truth
Can’t you feel the weight
Cos I’m on to you
As far as I know
You say she’s a friend
As far as I know
You’re at it again
Telling me lies
You’re so good, it’s true
But there’s a look in your eyes
And I’m on to you
You say she means nothing
Just a woman you know
Oh yeah darling
Oh the stories you told
You forget I know well
The man that you are
Oh I hear all the bells
The whistles and stars
The late night drinks
That go on for days
The times you rethink
The way you behave
It’s already too late
So don’t trouble the truth
Oh feel the weight
Cos I’m on to you, oh
I’m on to you
Oh darling, you know I’m on to you
It’s already to late
So don’t trouble the truth
Can’t you feel the weight
Oh I’m on to you
I’m on to you, I’m on to you
I’m on to you baby, I’m on to you
Oh, I’m on to you
Don’t you know it darling
You know I’m on to you...
