The Coastal Elites - Ill Gotten Gains

Ill Gotten Gains

You were staring to the east
Maria Kane
Trying to force today into yesterday

I summoned you to sleep
But you refused
Til you'd seen the sun

Sweetheart, our window doesn't face the east
Certainly no sunrise here - only ill gotten gains

I thought we'd agreed
Maria Kane
Anywhere but yesterday?
Oh sweetheart, didn't we believe
We'd make it up
For all the ill gotten gains

Didn't we believe
That somewhere the idea of him
Wouldn't be as threatening
And the heavy thought of her
Wouldn't follow us there

We could build upon a rock
Maria Kane
Let the sun warm our bed
Oh sweetheart, if only I was more to you
If only you were more than ill gotten gains

Withering and fleeting ill gotten gains
Ill conceived, ill believed ill gotten gains
