| She said life gets no better and no worse
|
| 'Cause where we came from, they tell you it’s a curse
|
| Hiding places lonely as she does
|
| Their smiling faces, no, they don’t need us tonight
|
| Are we one ribbon around the bomb?
|
| My nocturnal creature, she don’t sleep
|
| For all the sounds here, they’re so strange to me
|
| Then she said, «Boy, meet me by the beach on the edge of the retreating sea
|
| tonight»
|
| Are we one ribbon around the bomb?
|
| Take me home, ribbon around the bomb
|
| As you gaze from your heavy heart
|
| No, we won’t do you any harm
|
| Plenty small ones and many large
|
| Into your arms, until we part
|
| She said life gets no better and no worse
|
| 'Cause where we came from, they tell you it’s a curse
|
| Hiding places lonely as she does
|
| Their smiling faces, no, they don’t need us tonight
|
| Are we one ribbon around the bomb?
|
| Take me home, ribbon around the bomb
|
| Ribbon around the bomb, the bomb, the bomb
|
| Ribbon around the bomb, the bomb, the bomb
|
| Ribbon around the bomb |
