|
My mind is a night garden heavy with shadow it stares |
|
Your eyes adjust to the dark |
|
|
|
All the eastern girls |
|
Are wondering back from St. Martins |
|
Skin [...] |
|
But all the eastern girls |
|
They arrive like a king's pardon |
|
To the sound of bells |
|
|
|
Only just getting to know you |
|
Running the flag up to claim it |
|
Acted like I was your savior |
|
The Shepard instead of the lamb |
|
|
|
Night falls in and the skyline hardens |
|
Colors dissolving until |
|
Faces are lost among the stars |
|
|
|
All the eastern girls |
|
Like stars as the night sharpens |
|
They remind me of |
|
|
|
Only just getting to know you |
|
Running the flag up to claim it |
|
Acted like I was your savior |
|
The Shepard instead of the lamb |
|
Been walking around with my eyes closed |
|
Keeping away from your windows |
|
Fearful eviction horizons |
|
But you took my life in your hands |
|
|
|
All the eastern girls passing by |
|
All the eastern girls remind me that |
|
|
|
This is a love song (repeat) |
|
|
|
Sha-lalalalala-la |
|
|
|
Only just getting to know you |
|
Running the flag up to claim it |
|
Acted like I was your savior |
|
The Shepard instead of the lamb |
|
Been walking around with my eyes closed |
|
Keeping away from your windows |
|
Fearful eviction horizons |
|
But you took my life in your hands |
