Hiding Neath My Umbrella - God Help The Girl

Hiding neath my umbrella

Agreeable kind of fella

And take the safest route

Through all kinds of weather

Don’t commit to love

And don’t commit a crime

Worthless passion in your mind

The thrills that you’re imagining

Are a waste of your time

You sad individual

I’m not the one for you

You’ll never do

Time takes a mouthful of memory

Two spoonfuls

You forget everything

Life could be musical comedy

Prop-like street lighting

Awaiting your swing

Place your bets

I’ll place mine now

I will bet on your heart to win

I’ve got a feeling the weather is changing

And my luck is in

So what about the conversation

Heartfelt revelation

But then you realize

We are the diplomats

Talks are breaking down

Love is leaving town

Talk yourself into a corner

Skip the rope and go abroad, dear

What’s the attraction?

Follow the action

But you’re getting old

I can see the lines form on your face

Place your bets

I’ll place mine now

I’ve got a feeling the weather is changing so

Place your bets

I’ll place mine now

I’ve got a feeling the weather is changing so

Place your bets

I’ll place mine now

I will bet on your heart to win

I will bet on your heart to win

I’ve got a feeling the weather is changing

And my luck is in

My luck is in
