lyrics

She was cold lying on his bedroom floor
The autumn window open, the air marching to frozen
But other than her skin she was warm
Because the boy that lay beside her his light was burning golden

He is happiest when things are stable and unchanged
Most content with calm and small
Whereas she is a circus of unusual and strange
And even if she wants to can’t hold on to
Anything at all

Along those lines of thinking
His ship was sinking after a five year sail
All the while she was starting and stopping
She was box car hopping to no avail

And it seems her sad story could be over on this page
If she takes this writer for a lover than her story will change
She puts the pen in his hand, leans into him
Says “write me a kiss, then write me a kiss again”

The path for him and the path for her
To this moment builds the overture to a symphony
That they’re composting on the cold floor
The sounds of delight and surprise and falling fill the city

For a girl so lost and saddened how fast it happened
That she gained
A sense of being worthy of such beauty
As he contains

And it seems her sad story could be over on this page
If she takes this painter for a lover than her story will change
She puts the brush in his hand, leans in to him
Says “paint me a kiss, then paint me a kiss again and again and again”

She was cold lying on his bedroom floor
The autumn window was open, the air marching to frozen
