lyrics

From my eyes not four feet above the floor,
to your arms painted crudely with stories of the war,
they would lift me to your knees,
they would lift me to your knees,
not too rough, not carefully, but somewhere in between.

From my skin, my skin, my weary cheeks and hands,
where your kisses land like aeroplanes that are piloted by inexperience.
This one could be rough, boys!
And I'm not sure if it's fear or tobacco tangled in my hair.

Oh your mystery has gone missing,
oh your mystery has gone missing,
where'd it go?

Now these bedsheets hardly cover you,
you're smaller than the man that I used to know!

Look at your hands, you paper skin,
when you can't stand, newspaper thin,
would you blow away somewhere new?
