Greek Song
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.
You who were born with the sun above your shoulders
you turn me on
you turn me on
you have to know
you who were born where the sun she keeps her distance
you turn me on
you turn me on
but so does she
you who were born there where beauty is existence
you turn me on
you turn your body heals my soul
you who were born where you shiver and you shudder
you turn me on
the girl is gone
so come on lets go
all the pearls of china
fade astride the volta
dont sew beelines to anybodys hide
save your poision for a lover who is on your side
one way is rome and the other way is mecca
on either side
on either side
of our motorbike
one way is home and the other way is papa
on either side
on either side
and prepared to strike
when i get back i will
dream of barnes and nobles
dont leave me here
dont leave me where angels fear to tread
when i get back i will bleed after my beating
dont leave me here
dont leave me here
im scared to death
all the pearls of china
fade astride the volta
dont sew beelines to anybodys hide
save your poison for a lover who is on your side
all the pearls of china
fade astride the volta
dont sew beelines to anybodys hide
save your poison for a lover who is on your side
