Lyrics

LIKE A WEREWOLF
Dayna Manning © 2002 Her Bliss up (SOCAN)

Like a werewolf on a full moon
Or a butterfly from cocoon
You’re the fire under the spoon

Like my favorite old pair of shoes
Or the southern breeze in Malibu
It’s as reliable as the twelve bar blues

That every time I find someone new
I turn into the perfect girl for you, for you

I’ve been slowly counting by the days
Saying all the things I think I should say
Praying that my carriage won’t speed away

But every time I find someone new
I turn into the perfect girl for you, for you

Like the shadow on the moon
Or the mirage on the dune
I fear it’s on the move
But it’s gotta change soon
He’ll have his chance soon

Now who’s the one that said the wind was free
Or that god would get back to thee
How come everything I love is bad for me

And It can get as desperate as it seems
But I’m trying hard to get clean
So one day I can be the girl of his dreams

But every time I find someone new
I turn into the perfect girl for you, for you

Like the shadow on the moon
Or the mirage on the dune
I fear it’s on the move
But it’s gotta change soon
He’ll have his chance soon
