I had a thought, dear
However scary, about that night
The bugs and the dirt
Why were you digging?
What did you bury
Before those hands
Pulled me from the earth?
I will not ask you where you came from
I will not ask and neither should you
Honey, just put your sweet lips on my lips
We should just kiss like real people do
I knew that look, dear
Eyes always seeking
Was there in someone
That dug long ago
So, I will not ask you
Why you were creeping
In some sad way, I already know
So, I will not ask you where you came from
I would not ask and neither would you
Honey, just put your sweet lips on my lips
We should just kiss like real people do
I could not ask you where you came from
I could not ask and neither could you
Honey, just put your sweet lips on my lips
We could just kiss like real people do
