| I saw you leave the cities one day,
|
| You were so afraid, you were so afraid
|
| Bathing in a pool of your sweaty tears
|
| You ain’t aged in years, you ain’t aged in years
|
| I, I made a mattress for you out of my body
|
| Mine’s the sheets and I, I
|
| Haven’t words to say to you
|
| To make you feel much better
|
| I want you to be, I want you to be,
|
| I want you to be there
|
| I want you to be, I want you to be,
|
| I want you to be here
|
| Oh darling,
|
| How can I lift these worries from my heart?
|
| These worries from my heart?
|
| Whoa, my darling,
|
| It seems we’re all grown to nothing but shadow
|
| To nothing but shadow
|
| I made a blanket of my hair
|
| You are so sweet and thin
|
| You are so damn thin
|
| With your anchors gone
|
| You are floating to free
|
| I could not foresee, I could not foresee
|
| I, I made a mattress for you out of my body
|
| Mine’s the sheets and I, I
|
| Haven’t words to say to you
|
| To make you feel much better
|
| Oh darling,
|
| How can I lift these worries from my heart?
|
| These worries from my heart?
|
| Whoa, my darling,
|
| It seems we’re all grown to nothing but shadow
|
| To nothing but shadow, oh oh
|
| Oh darling,
|
| How can I lift these worries from my heart?
|
| These worries from my heart?
|
| Whoa, my darling,
|
| It seems we’re all grown to nothing but shadow
|
| To nothing but shadow, oh oh |
