Thomas

Lyrics

Thomas don't count the hours till morning I'll tend the fire, while you sleep on the floor Dream I'm a dark flock of birds above the backyard Naked as day Aching for wisdom Scar on your thigh, takes the shape of a passenger ship I Imagine a lake, dark and warm as your mouth Time bends us, back to when you're the young man I see you in the sleeping or Or I find I am distracted by your innocence gone Take a life, just to make a new death, honey I still don't know where you've gone, come on Tell me, I'll find you there Take me stone face Make my body a cradle Love me till death or till I can't remember Till I'm just a stranger you met On your way to oblivion Time bends us back to when you're a young man You're a lifeline
