Couldn’t Cause Me Harm Lyrics
Beth Orton
Ooh, yeah, you know,
You couldnt cause me any harm.
Although, at times, I may get startled,
Im not alarmed.
I can see your eyes
I know when theyre telling me a truth
I can feel the heart,
Especially when its on the roof
Of my mouth.
Theres no right or wrong.
This isnt a test.
And I wont lose my experience.
I wont try
To put it aside.
But its alright.
You know that its alright.
s alright.
Its gonna be alright.
s gonna be alright.
And if I told you,
Would you never know to guess?
Sure, whats the point
When little often means so much less.
I can see for miles.
I know when youre telling me a truth
I can feel my heart,
Esepcially now. its on the roof
Of my mouth
Theres no right or wrong.
This isnt a gesture
And I dont use my experience.
I dont try
To let it go by
But its alright.
You know that its alright.
Its alright.
Its gonna be alright.
Ba da ba ba ba da da da....
