about

A track about love, lust and loss

lyrics

cartoon cut out of the picturesque boy
The one who brings you pain and then brings you joy
The one who's always mocking and then acting coy
The one who comes a knocking but still plays with toys
He is the picture that is oh so fine
I wanna hang him up, I wanna make him mine
But then he's gotta sit next to a pre-exisiting shrine
And is there room for both> and have we got the time?

A treasure chest that is turned inside out
He's shiny on the outside but what's he all about?
A man of mystery he ain't the one to show
And we ain't letting go, we're in the great unknown
But he's a magnet, and he has pulled me in
So I can't see where I end and he begins
And if we're playing games, well then I wanna win

I just waited for your phone call
But you wasn't gonna type it
So I wasn't gonna fight it, oh no
I just waited for your letter
But you wasn't gonna write it
So I wasn't gonna find it, oh no

So despite my better sense of inner knowing
I am taken to a place where I just have to keep on going
And in so many ways out energies are flowing
My heart's getting weaker and the seeds are sewing
of love

Don't say it if you do no turning back,
it comes with projections that I can't contract
And now they are alive
So you're gonna have to step up to my own demise

It feels like thunder and rain sometimes
When you say goodbye
And turn out the light
It feels like drowning to save your life
And you do despite the initial fight
It feels like hunting a beast that's wild
Just to make her mild as she makes her pile
Of hopes and dreams on the movie screen
Who she soon will be if she stays in peace

You had me flowing in the breeze like
be ya ba bo bay ya ba day
be ya ba bo bay ya ba day
