All To Myself Lyrics

I'd start with the boys that hang

at the pier

like bats in the night, get tangled

in your hair

I'd take away the weekend

shoreleave lovers

that flood the ports with drunken

tales of far away

I'd take away the Eiffel tower

I'd take away the port of Spain

I take your yellow coat

no more romantic walks in the

pouring rain

then I'd make washboard, wind-

blown, sea-side, serenading, prep

school boys disappear

that flock in the summer like gulls to

the beach

and pick at your heart like the

garbage on the street

I'll take away all the things that make

you look away from me

I'd take away everything

then I'd have you all to myself

I'd take away the guy with the

monkey wrench smile

he'll steal your heart away and make

a Minnesota mile

like a corner store crook on a prison

break or a porno queen in a

party cake

I'd take away the Spanish steps

I'd take away the Golden Gate

I take away everything

just to have you all to myself

I never thought it'd get this bad

inside of me

I never thought that I'd be so

consumed with jealousy

I need you every night and every

day in bed

these thoughts keep spinning in

my head

then I'd make the big screen, battle-

scarred, bold-faced, leading man,

lone star heroes disappear

that fill your heart with thoughts of

being swept away

but that's a part a man like me could

never play

I'll take away all the things that make

you look away from me

I'd take away everything

just to have you all to myself
