Joseph Arthur - Bottle of you lyrics

I squeeze the last bit of you

Out of a bottle of your old shampoo

It smells just like you

Now I do too

Rinse out my hair and wipe my eyes

As your soap rolls in between my toes

Dry myself off in the moonlight

And I can touch you

Every time I breath in through my nose

I wish that I had faith in you

I watched you breath into a heartbreak

The night we first held hands

Your eyes they switched from blue to green

Then they went back to being blue again

You say you never get to sleep

'Cause all your dreams are buried in the sand

I could barely hear you crying

Over the buzz of our electric fan

I wish that I had faith in you

You're a tether ball

Fastened to the end of my head

Who you are and who you want to be

Are competing at opposite ends

And when they hit you back and forth

You squeeze tight around my neck

Darling I can barely breath

But I know that you mean

Absolutely no disrespect

I wish that I had faith in you
