Comin' Tonight Lyrics

You're comin' tonight
To my home town
I've been to yours many times before
And it's always been a thrill

You'll stay in a hotel or at friends near by
We haven't spent the night together in this town
Since nineteen seventy nine
Not such a long time

I could steal a melody
Of this I am allowed
'Cause you would never sue me, baby
It wouldn't look good, it'd be weird

Have a drink after the show
I might really wanna know
But everything you say I oppose
I blame it on my hole, it's just my role

I can steal a melody
Yes, I am allowed
'Cause you would never sue me, baby
It wouldn't look good, it'd be weird

And I spend my time trying to forget you
With booze and smoke from cigarettes and dope
And I only seem to forget myself
It's only you that is left

I could steal a melody
Of this I am allowed
You would never sue me, baby

I could steal a melody
This I am allowed
You would never sue me, baby
It wouldn't look good, it'd be weird
It'd be weird, it'd be weird

You're comin' tonight
To my home town

Martha Wainwright (b. 1976 in Montreal, Quebec) is a Canadian-American singer-songwriter.

Daughter of Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle, and the sister of Rufus Wainwright, she has frequently appeared on recordings by her family members, the McGarrigle Sisters and Family and has released several independent EPs. Wainwright released an independent cassette, Ground Floor, in 1997. The following year, her song "Year of the Dragon" appeared on The McGarrigle Hour, an album released by Kate & Anna McGarrigle. Shortly after this recording, Martha began singing backup vocals for her brother, and released the six-song EP Martha Wainwright in 1999.

Her full length self-titled first album was released in 2005, followed in 2008 by I Know You're Married but I've Got Feelings Too, and in 2009 by Sans fusils, ni souliers, à Paris: Martha Wainwright's Piaf Record. The Prosperpina Songfacts reports that her 4th album, Come Home To Mama, was recorded at Sean Lennon's studio in New York City. Speaking about the album, Wainwright said: "This record is a culmination of my life experiences so far. Everything changed for me a couple of years ago and this record is a representation of that and a return to the reason I started writing songs." Read more on Last.fm.
