Biography:
Beth Orton (born Elizabeth Caroline Orton, 14 December 1970, in East Dereham, Norfolk) is a BRIT Award–winning English singer-songwriter, known for her 'folktronica' sound, which mixes elements of folk and electronica. She initially came to notice for her collaborations with William Orbit and the Chemical Brothers in the mid-1990s. However, these were not Orton's first recordings as she had released a solo album, Superpinkymandy, in 1993. Since the album was only released in Japan, it went largely unnoticed by international audiences.

From her album Central Reservation
Bm
You walked into my house last night
D
I couldn't help but notice
A E
A light that was long gone out still burning strong
Bm
You were sitting
D
Your fingers like fuses
A E
Your eyes were cinnamon
Pre-Chorus 1:
You said you stand for every known abuse
That was ever threatened to anyone but you
And why should I know better by now
When I'm old enough not to
Chorus 1:
While every line speaks the language of love
It never held the meaning I was thinking of
And I can't decide between right or wrong
I guess sometimes you need the place where you belong
Verse 2:
Some may sing the wrong verse to the wrong melody
It's little things like this that matter to me
Other feel that you should stand
For every known abuse to hand
And all the things that they could never see
Pre-Chorus 2:
You said you stood for every known abuse
That was promised to anyone like you
Don't you wish you knew better by now
When you're old enough not to
Chorus 2:
When every line speaks the language of love
And never held the meaning I was thinking of
And I can't decide over right or wrong
You left the feeling that I just do not belong
Do not belong, do not belong, do not belong
Bridge:
Bm
One drink too many
And a joke gone too far
I see a face drive a stolen car
E
Gets harder to hide
When you're hitching a ride
Harder to hide what you really saw
Pre-Chorus 3:
Oh yeah you stand for every know abuse
That I've ever seen my way through
Don't you wish you knew better by now
Well I think I'm starting to
Chorus 3:
When every line speaks the language of love
And never held the meaning I was thinking of
And I've lost the line between right or wrong
I just wanna find the place where I belong
(Cello solo)
Why should you know better by now
When you're old enough not to
I wish i knew better by now
When I'm old enough not to
(Cello solo)
