Monica Lyrics by Joe Barbarulo

Settle Down

2018

{Verse I}
The way you smile when you speak
But there’s no color in those cheeks
It’s like I’m not enough to be
The one to cheer you constantly
But I love you don’t you see?
Your hair would stop before your neck
Most of the time I was a wreck
But you put your arms around me
A love for you completely
It’s all I ever want to be…. so
{Chorus}
Hey Monica, Hey Hey Monica
Hey Monica, Hey Hey Monica
Hey Monica, Hey Hey Monica
Won’t you dance with me tonight?
X2
{Verse 2}
Then you disappeared again
I threw myself into the deep end
Sank to the bottom without air
Could leave this world without a care
Then I woke up to your stare
I shouldn’t stay here to explain
I’ve lost what’s made me at all humane
I say things like “what a shame”
When I’m alive it starts to rain
But you laugh and still look at me all the same… so
{Chorus}
Hey Monica, Hey Hey Monica
Hey Monica, Hey Hey Monica
Hey Monica, Hey Hey Monica
Won’t you dance with me tonight?
X2
{Bridge}
I’m tripping over myself
Sometimes I wish that I was- someone else
The air feels smoggy now
And I’m stranded in the crowd
But you find me either way
You still came out to say
“Where’ve you been, I’ve missed you?
I wanted to kiss you
{Verse 3}
You sat a cried with me tonight
Your eyes they shine in the pale moonlight
I’m not really thinking clearly
But I’ll always love you dearly
So please wipe your tears for me
I’ll see you again sometime
Maybe just not in this life
When you don’t know what to do
Know you always pulled me through, because
I wasn’t living if not with you, so
{Chorus}
Hey Monica, Hey Hey Monica
Hey Monica, Hey Hey Monica
Hey Monica, Hey Hey Monica
Won’t you dance with me tonight?
X3
