I’m an autumn girl, flying over London |
With the trees on fire it looks like home |
I’m an autumn girl on the endless search for summer |
Cause I need some love to cook my frozen bones |
You needed something to get your teeth into |
And in my voodoo kitchen you said |
«I've got something to show you |
It’s a recipe handed down from father to son |
For a thousand years, and it goes with those hot salt tears.» |
I’m an autumn girl, crying over London |
With a heart on fire but no-one home |
I’m an autumn girl on the endless search for summer |
Cause I need some love to heat my frozen bones |
Get me on the boil and reduce me |
To a simmering wreck with a slow kiss |
To the back of my neck |
Carve up my heart on a very low flame |
Separate my feelings then pour them down the drain |
Close my eyes and sweeten me with lies |
Pierce my skin with a few well chosen words |
Now you can stuff me with whatever you’ve got handy |
And on a cold grey day a cold grey man will do |
I’m an autumn girl, flying over London |
With the trees on fire it looks like home |
I’m an autumn girl on the endless search for summer |
Cause I need some love to heat my frozen bones |
So give me something to whet my appetite |
And chill my soul with a sudden lack of interest |
Oh, but the winter freezes on and the candle’s burned low |
Fill me with the hot stuff then say you’ve got to go |
Take my mind, marinade it in red wine |
Grate my thighs with your chinny chin chin |
And I will let you in |
Oh on a long dark night a long dark man might … |
