prelude/to moonn6pence from papayeverte
Now youll have to hold me up
And now Ill have to fall
Sew up my eyelids stitch up my lips
Take me down Roman stairs
through your secret back door
With your lips for food
andyour skin for sheets
Your eyes for light
and your blood for heat
And your two white arms for an overcoat
Lay me down now by your side
For Im blinder by the hour
Take me down out of sight
For Im blinder blinder by the hour
O bundle me tight in your overcoat
With the damn-all we said
and the d**n-all we wrote
In the stillness of breath
in the dampness of walls
We are taking the cure
we are taking no calls With our hair
for straw and our teeth for dice
Press air through my lips
slap me once or twice
I know your secret delight in vice
Lay me down now by your side
For Im blinder by the hour
Take me down out of sight
For Im blinder blinder by the hour
And this is all I have
And this is all you get
And this is all I have
And this is all you get
And this is all I have
And this is
With my lips for food
and my skin for sheets
My eyes for light end my blood for heat
And my two white arms for an overcoat
Lay me down now by your side
For Im blinder by the hour
Take me down now out of sight
For Im blinder blinder by the hour
interlude/to moonn6pence from papayeverte
And this is all I have
Lay me down And this is all you get
Take me down...
