lyrics

hit and run
(e.baker)

struggling,
having trouble with closing the case,
the taxi waits by your door,
but you don’t hold on,
for anyone, not for anyone no...
no ones worth waiting for.

you don’t stop,
you hit & run,
and you’re burning all your bridges on the way,
no you don’t stop,
you hit & run,
you knocked it down,
you hit & run away,
(yeah...)

she’s the kind that hates the way that quiet fills a room,
cos she hates the way that she’s upstaged,
so she leaves a lie just like she’s thrown a little ticking bomb,
little ticking bomb,
oh and now she’s low on grenades,

and you don’t stop,
you hit & run,
and you’re burning all your bridges on the way,
no you don’t stop,
you hit & run,
well you knocked it down,
you hit & run away,


she said
‘take me to the station’,
‘get away’,
‘buy a ticket’
‘get away and then run right out of patience’,
‘i know what you’re thinking ‘take her away’,
‘so take me away’...
yeah take me away and just go, go, go
just go, go ,go, go...

you don’t stop,
you hit & run,
and you’re burning all your bridges on the way,

no you don’t stop,
you know you hit & run,
well you knocked it down,
you hit & run and you don’t stop,
you hit & run,
and you’re burning all your bridges oh...
well you’re burning all your bridges,
no you don’t stop,
you know you hit & run,
well you knocked it down,

you hit & run away, (you knocked it down)
yeah you knocked it down,
you hit and run away, (you knocked it down)

yeah you knocked it down,
hit & run....

about

Emily writes songs about people, relationships and places. She tells stories about disastrous friendships, love hitting you ... more like a hammer and it dissolving like it should never have been there.

She's toured with Amy Wadge & Pete Riley, Jon Allen and Chris Difford; gigged with Pete Doherty, Beth Rowley, Charlene Soraia, Gabriela Cilmi, Jesca Hoop, Charlie Winston & more besides....so that's nice less
