How hard for the covers to be pulled from their slumbers, |
|
but a ghost never gives up its sheet. |

Tell me, is it the same for the rattling chains or whatever you wear when you sleep? |
|
You remember the time that I told you to take off your clothes? |
|
You were naked as a window. |
|

|
I'm just a hallway for ceilings and walls, babe |
|
and emptiness all the way through. |
|
You know you're asking too much to be held and not touched, |
|
but somehow that's just what you do. |
|
You remember the time that I told you to take off your clothes? |
