One or the Other - Emily Ritz

You can’t be all eyes and all ears

I can’t be all hope and all fear

Which is it now, which is it now, which is now

You can’t be all safe and all threat

I can’t be all give and all get

Which is it now, which is it now, which is now

I’ve been the servant, I’ve been the serpent

I’ve grown relations, I’ve grown impatient

I’ve died and come back

It’s all light and all black

It’s all forth and all back

It’s all light and all

You can’t be all stay and all roam

I can’t be all lost and all home

All flesh and all bone

All cream and all cone

All sand and all stone

All scream and all moan

All babe and all grown

Which is it now, which is it now, which is now

Which is it now, which is it now, which is now

I’ll be your woman, I’ll be your lemon

I’ll grow a child, I’ll grow so wild

I’ll die and come back

It’s all light and all black

It’s all forth and all back

It’s all light and all
