Lyrics
franny
franny
can you see
how you move me
i wither within your words
when you get on your beautiful high-horse
the rest of the world seems absurd
i wish i could calm your worries
as you hurry through dinner with me
i?ve got a crush on you franny
franny
can you see
franny
can you tell
what i?m feeling
i fear my heart?s on my sleeve
each week you take on another issue
with a passion i barely believe
and do you really like the swizzle-stick
or are you just humoring me
i?m sure it?ll bring you good luck franny
franny
can you see
i know i?m almost one year younger
and you don?t take me seriously
but franny, this isn?t some one-week wonder
i see a future for you and me
for you and me...
...franny
can you see
what you do to me
i hang on each smoky word
when you?re up on that beautiful soapbox
it?s like music i?ve never heard
and maybe, because it?s your birthday
you?ll take a little pity on me
i?ll take whatever you?ll offer franny
franny
can?t you see ?
that i think i?m in love with you franny
franny...
