|
I will be your singing bird, |
|
Your singing bird for all my days. |
|
If you let me be in love, |
|
In love with my cage. |
|
I will be your lying lamb, |
|
Your lying lamb for all my life. |
|
If you let me be in love, |
|
Be in love with your knife. |
|
And I will be your wishing bone; |
|
Your wishing bone for you to break. |
|
If you let me be the one, |
|
Be the one wish you make. |
|
And I will be your holy smoke, |
|
My feet will never touch the ground. |
|
I will be your tinderbox; |
|
You light me up to burn me down. |
|
And I will be what your are not; |
|
A skeleton key free of life. |
|
I will be the one you keep, |
|
If you show me how to fall asleep. |
