lyrics

I need more time inside the womb
My keeper's cradle and her tomb
A boy his heart so dusty
A man his joints so rusty
Stand in the window of the store
Where I let my love open the door
Caught by your pretty threads of brown
I'd rather fly than climb back down

The dams they broke; we drowned
The holes in my socks I found
The leaves don't make a sound
Beneath my feet

Our eyes lit up and fell in line
Your hands fit perfectly in mine
I called you radiant and bright
You said it's much too late for light

You came like a snowflake darling
That fell on my tongue
You left like the rain; so alarming
The kind that keeps you young

You came like a snowflake darling
That fell on my tongue
You left like the rain; so alarming
The kind that keeps you young

You rest your eyes just like a child
You tell me I'm just like a child
You rest your eyes just like a child
You tell me I'm just like a child
