|
the kids on the corner they're learning the bad trends |
|
with their fingers raised to the skies |
|
the homeless and hungry they're so short of money |
|
but they keep praying for passersby |
|
the modern and classy they pretend to be trashy |
|
and it puts a grin on my face |
|
i live with a lover, his eyes scream "i love her" |
|
i love when he sleeps at my place |
|
|
|
oh baby, don't sleep, just yet, just yet. |
|
there are things that i've left to tell you, yes, yes. |
|
|
|
oh i could touch forever his islands and treasure |
|
but i fear one day this will end |
|
i'm livin too quickly says, oh, far too many |
|
but aren't they just movin too slow? |
|
you say i'm the sun, but to me, you're the one |
|
and i dream that one day this won't end |
|
i always think of him, i pretty much love him |
|
to me, he's the ultimate best |
|
|
|
oh baby, don't sleep, just yet, just yet. |
|
there are things i have left to tell you, yes, yes. |
|
|
|
oh baby, don't sleep, just yet, just yet. |
|
there are things i have left to tell you, yes... |
|
|
|
baby, baby, baby... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
i'll stand behind the curtain |
|
i'll end with a closer |
|
here you are |
|
here you are |
|
|
|
|
|
(pass the button, pass the thread |
|
tapestry tapping your pretty, pretty head |
|
pass the paint, pass the brush |
|
sit there still while i draw you, in a rush |
|
you don't see what you do to me |
|
you don't see what you do to me |
|
|
|
the reeds and the weeds tangle my feet |
|
but you are the pulse |
|
i follow your beat |
|
in the cytoplasm asphyxiation |
|
you feed me with your light your rhythms |
|
|
|
when you sleep i watch your chest |
|
once you rise with the sun in the west |
|
copy your breathing rhythms so i can be more like you |
|
learn your lucid dreaming so we can both sleep there too |
|
|
|
in dreams we face an identical view |
|
an identical view) |
