Pete Yorn China Girl Lyrics

I could escape this feeling with my China girl
I feel a wreck without my little China girl
I hear her heart beating loud as thunder
Saw them stars crashing

I'm a mess without my little China girl
Wake up mornings, where's my little China girl?
I hear her heart's beating loud as thunder
Saw them stars crashing down

I feel tragic like I'm with Marlon Brando
When I look at my China girl
I could pretend that nothing ever really meant too much When I look at my China girl

I stumble into town just like a sacred cow
Visions of swastikas in my head
Plans for everyone
It's in the white of my eyes

You shouldn't mess with me my little China girl
I'll ruin everything you are
I'll give you television, I'll give you eyes of blue
I'll give you men who want to rule the world

And when I get excited
My little china girl says
Oh baby you just shut your mouth
She says, "Shh"
