Lyrics
Under You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Along the edges, colors blur at seem familiar.
While you read your magazine,
I was counting all the markers.
And california seemed to draw you like a siren
From a postcard, or a letter, in a frame of film melting.
But under you, i hear your breath move in, out slowly.
Under you, let go completely feeling you take over me.
A hollywood flat where we'd laugh about our fortunes
Well we held jobs in this bar down at 3rd and san vicente.
And ramen noodles at 4:30 in the morning,
When we barely could survive, i was never more alive.
Under you, i feel your blood flowing out slowly.
Under you, let go completely feeling you take over me
You moved in slow degrees
A sudden memory
You're a leonard cohen song
But every now and then i'd swear i see you standing on a sidewalk, in a
Restaurant, from a taxi cab passing.
Under you i feel you moving in/out slowly
Under you let go completely feeling you take over me.
Take over me.
