about

Favourite Skin was originally written by Rick during his time fronting Mlebourne alt country rockers, Heathen Sway. It continues to be a live favourite and this version was recorded as part of Mark Mayle's Sunday Sessions on RPP FM in September 2015. Performed with his band The Sweet Addictions.

lyrics

Watch your light fade away or is it just for today
She gave you reason to be true
You went and through it all away
Have you gone insane
Or is it too much of a good thing let you down

Now throw your hands up and cry
You’ll try and leave before the tear stains dry
And your favourite skin won’t let you go
Your favourite skin won’t let you go

Watch your skies turn to grey or just clouds in the way
Of seeing every reason to be true
Between the lies that remain
Have you lost your way
Or is it all the things you never got to say

Now throw your head back and try
To get up and leave before the love runs dry
But your favourite skin won’t let you go
Your favourite skin won’t let you go

Oh no
Oh no, oh no
No no no
Oh no, oh no
No, no, no

Now throw your head back and try
To get up and leave before the love runs dry
But your favourite skin won’t let you go
Your favourite skin won’t let you go
