lyrics

Things are starting to get better
I’m only beginning to live
I ask for clarity
You give it endlessly
I’ll love you till heaven knows when

I have numbed enough for two lifetimes
Won’t go and make the same mistakes
You helped to keep me sane
When all I knew was pain
I’ll call on you till heaven knows when

In the morning I used to sigh
And in the evening I could not help but cry

(I don’t want to die)

(doo doo wah) I was ready
(doo doo wah) For your loving
(doo doo wah) Never needed
(doo doo wah) Nothing more

(doo doo wah) When I found you
(doo doo wah) I came to my senses
(doo doo wah) I’m only human
(doo doo wah) Nothing more

I carry exactly what I’m looking for
Strength is inherent in us
You told me I was good
And that I always should
Trust in you till heaven knows when

about

My Boyfriend Los Angeles, California

“I love My Boyfriend. They’re normal-core mutants from an imaginary 1960s: in which the Beatles took lots of antidepressants that didn't work or an imaginary ’80s in which Jonathan Richman only ever listened to The 5th Dimension and early Philly Soul records.”

~ Marc Ribot, Pi Recordings ... more
