Started saving green and before breathing
I have your voice on tape in a southern accent screaming at me
I was only one and we weren't prepared for one
(I have your voice on tape in a southern accent screaming at me)
So we started saving green, before breathing
Know things look lovely to you
Holding back, now and forever (sweetheart)
Lonely Boy, its midnight and Ill deny,
You were walking so peculiar like you had something to hide
You were walking so peculiar like you had something to hide
Sweet penance for this sound - it might explode in our hands
Bordered in a brown pigmentation,
The element lines cut short, turned in and stopped
I was watching rose give in - I started savoring the sound
I was watching rose give in to it -severing the ties between
mother and son
I was watching rose give in to it-severing the ties between
mother and son
Know things look lovely to you
Holding back, now and forever sweetheart
Know things look lovely
Lonely boy, it's midnight and I'll deny
You were walking so peculiar like you had something to hide
(still so deadly)
You were walking so peculiar like you had something to hide
Sweet penance for this sound- it might explode in our hand
(it might explode)
Sweet penance for this sound- it might explode in our hand
I once saw many places, I promised the world and a dozen roses.
