Lydia Loveless – European lyrics

[Verse 1]
There's a light in your attic, I can see it
And it flashes for a dirty voyeur like me
There's a heartbeat on the air tonight, I hear it
Whispering, "beat, beat, beat, beat, beat"

[Pre-Chorus]
What's it gonna take for you to let me inside?
Man, I'm standing on your lawn and the grass is on fire

[Chorus]
When I kissed on the lips, I was being European
Honey, come on
I just want to right what's been feeling so wrong
Well, if you don't love me, I can hide my feelings
But I just want to get what I haven't had in so long

[Verse 2]
Tell secrets in an alley in New Orleans
To read my palm right through your jeans
Watch your lips move 'til I don't know what the words mean
Ain't there some things you feel like you could only say to me?

[Pre-Chorus]
What's it gonna take for you not be mad?
Can you look me in the eye and tell me that you're still upset?

[Chorus]
Well, when I kissed on the lips, I was being European
Honey, come on
I want to grab before the moment's gone
Well, you can't kick me out while I'm still reeling
I just want to get what I haven't had in so long
So long

[Verse 3]
I take you places where they kiss just to say "hi" to you
And break your heart open just like a shell
Because right now I'm so afraid of tomorrow
And some things I don't wanna do with anyone else

[Chorus]
Like when I kiss on the lips, I was being European
Honey, come on
I thought I was broken, then you turned me on
Well, if you don't want me now, I guess you'll beat it
I just wanna give you what you haven't had in so long
In so long
In so long
In so long
