lyrics

What I want and what I need is different I see.
With jewels and a rip in my dress I am running out to sea.
I am looking to make that trade back with the mermaid holding part of me.
I say I want a kiss but I want more
I say I want a kiss but I want more

Maharaj bargaining for me, forty goats and seventy cows he would pay my family.
But I am running as fast as I can, holding the hand of my laboring man.
Johnny rolls his own cigarettes and we sing all night.

I am Satine of the Moulin Rouge with the lover on the hide
and a peace that I cannot find, Life is like the movies,
forbidden lovers running in the night.

I said that what I want, but I ‘m not satisfied
I know you’ve done your best but you haven’t even tried.
Trust me I have dignity similar to you. I was blinded by the jewels and starving for comfort. Living laying on the floor with Johnny broke my back and I took the hand of another man and I broke the rule of this land. But I feel the ocean breathing my back and I’m hearing it call me and I am taking my johnny b ack with me, back home.
(I say I want a kiss but I want more )
