Lyrics Belle De Jour - Birds Of Passage

Belle De Jour

Moonlight, come and find me
Hidden behind my closed eyes
Draw your shadow over
The secrets of my two lives
MoonLight, please, I beg you
See through me and my distance
I dreamt I stole your kisses
I stole them while you slumbered
The romance I remember
Is simplicity
Have I killed the flame
Or just heightened my ideals?
This spring and all its blossoms
I give leave to get th best of me
And cover m with flowers
Till I’ve healed
I’m censored by the choices of the web
I’ve spun around me
But I fell in love with kindness
And he fell in love with me
So take me as i want to be
Surrendered under your breath
Naked, steal my kisses
And hound me to my death
This mask I wear is wounded
Like the soldier underneath
This heart I hide is delicate
And worn
Use me in the shadows
For the shadows bring out light
And love, my light is almost gone
