If Only

KT Tunstall If Only Lyrics
1.If Only

Lyricist:KT Tunstall
Writer(s):KT Tunstall

Walking around in a daze after days now its been
Talking it up is amazing and amazed that I'm in
Looking at the stars for the answers but all that you found
Was silence and dirty ground

If only you could see me now
If only you could hear me out
If only it was only me now

Listen just a little bit harder for I always tell the truth
it isn't just a piston in an engine that keeps you moving
You looking like you're looking for answers and now
You're surrounded by silence

If only you could see me now
If only you could hear me out
If only it was only me now

You're surrounded by silence
silence

you're surrounded by silence
silence
silence
You're surrounded by silence
silence
silence
Oh You're surrounded by silence
silence

If only you could see me now
If only you could hear me out
If only it was only me now
If only you could see me now
If only you could hear me out
If only it was only me now
If only it was only me now
If only it was only me now


2.Walk Like An Egyptian(Live In Liverpool)

Lyricist:The Bangles
Writer(s):The Bangles

All the old paintings on the tombs
They do the sand dance don't you know
If they move too quick
(oh whey oh)
They're falling down like a domino

All the bazaar men by the Nile
They put the money on a bet
Gold crocodiles
(oh whey oh)
They snap their teeth on your cigarette

Foreign types with the hookah pipes say
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh
Walk like an Egyptian

They spin around and they cross the floor
They've got the moves
(oh whey oh)
You drop your drink then they bring you more

All the school kids so sick of books
They like the punk and the metal band
When the buzzer rings
(oh whey oh)
They're walking like an Egyptian

All the kids in the marketplace say
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh
Walk like an Egyptian

Slide your feet up the street bend your back
Put your arm then you pull it back
(oh whey oh)
So strike a pose on a Cadillac

If you want to find all the cops
They're hanging out in the donut shop
They sing and dance
(oh whey oh)

All the Japanese with their yen
The party boys call the Kremlin
And the Chinese know
(oh whey oh)
They walk the line like Egyptian

All the cops in the donut shop say
Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh
Walk like an Egyptian
Walk like an Egyptian


3.The Prayer(Radio 1 Live Lounge)

Lord give me grace and dancing feet
And the power to impress
Lord give me grace and dancing feet
Let me outshine them all

Is it so wrong to crave recognition?
Second best, runner-up
Is it so wrong to want rewarding?
To want more than is given to you?
Than is given to you

Tonight make me unstoppable
And I will charm, I will slice
I will dazzle them with my wit
Tonight make me unstoppable
And I will charm, I will slice
I will dazzle, I will outshine them all

Standing on the packed dance floor
Our bodies fro in time
Silent on the weekdays
Tonight I claim what's mine

Is it so wrong to crave recognition?
Second best, runner-up
Is it so wrong to want rewarding?
To want more than is given to you?
Than is given to you

Tonight make me unstoppable
And I will charm, I will slice
I will dazzle them with my wit
Tonight make me unstoppable
And I will charm, I will slice
I will dazzle, I will outshine them all

Tonight make me unstoppable
And I will charm, I will slice
I will dazzle them with my wit
Tonight make me unstoppable
And I will charm, I will slice
I will dazzle, I will outshine them all
