|
I was slicing up an avocado |
|
When you came up behind me |
|
With your silent brand-new sneakers |
|
Your reflection I did not see |
|
It was the hottest day in August |
|
We were heading for the sea |
|
For a second my mind started drifting |
|
You put your arms around me |
|
You put your arms around me |
|
You put your arms around |
|
Blood spraying on the kitchen-sink |
|
"What's this" I have time to think |
|
I see the tip of my index finger |
|
My mind is slowly creating a link |
|
From your mouth speaks your lovely voice |
|
The softest words ever spoken |
|
What's broken can always be fixed |
|
What's fixed will always be broken |
|
You put your arms around me |
|
You put your arms around me |
|
You put your arms around me |
|
You put your arms around |
|
I must have passed out on the porch |
|
Dreamt I was carried in a kangaroo's pouch |
|
When I wake up I'm in the waiting room |
|
On a dirty hospital couch |
|
My hand is wrapped in toilet paper |
|
And my body's wrapped in debris |
|
You're sitting next to me reading a paper |
|
I put your arm around me |
