Lyrics
Salted Caramel Sinner
(words and music by Sam Russell)
Kate:
some things never seem to go right when they’re done for the very first time
but if you work hard and try to get better to the very top you can climb
Sam:
from magazines you’ll learn all the ways certain things ought to be done
but when the moment finally arrives a fear is there you can’t outrun
Kate:
all the years you’ve waited so patient for the one to make your heart go numb
Sam:
and take you to the top of the mountain
Kate & Sam:
here it comes here it comes here it comes
Kate:
and this is what it’s like and this is how it feels
if this is what it’s like, is this how it should feel
oh darling let me know how you want it go
if this is what it’s like and this is how it feels
Sam:
people always want to talk about what they heard about what went wrong
how could they know, who would have told a secret that only two were supposed to hold
Kate:
pressure inside builds to exploding, it could burst out with just one touch
Sam: as revenge for a promise now broken
Kate
& Sam::
that you wanted kept so much
and this is what it’s like and this is how it feels
if this is what it’s like, is this how it should feel
oh darling let me know how you want it go
if this is what it’s like and this is how it feels
Kate:
I’m listening and I hear an engine outside passing by
Sam:
it moves so slowly and never stops at red...
Kate & Sam:
: ..lights
many times I’ve broke down and cried when I realized how they all lied
and that love will never be true and each time won’t feel brand new
Kate:
and maybe some things sometimes go right even on the very first try
Sam:
but if they do they’ll never get better
Kate & Sam:
time after time and night after night
and this is what it’s like and this is how it feels
if this is what it’s like, is this how it should feel
oh darling let me know how you want it go
if this is what it’s like and this is how it feels
don’t hurt me one more time...
