Bombadil Honeymoon
throw the body in the lake
and take a chance that no one finds out
your life is stories that you fake
and rake like leaves behind you
so row the boat into the bay
and say you've lost your compass
your life is pieces that you play
and maybe they will trump us
blow the kiss you never felt
and belt your wife for smiling
love is lying by yourself
alone awake and crying
honey
even if you knew
even if you knew
even if you knew
what lies, what lies behind that honeymoon
sew the ribbon round your throat
and coat your mouth with honey
your life is books you never wrote
and tote only for money
dig a hole into the ground
and pound the earth in outrage
your life is treasures that you've found
and drowned in lakes that you've made
show the soul you never had
a fad that will not save you
your life is hiding all the bad
and sad smiles that break you
honey
even if you knew
even if you knew
even if you knew
what lies, what lies behind that honeymoon
honey if you took back all the promises and rings
and little things and when he sings would you still
know
what lies behind that honeymoon
movies that you make and you hit stop and you hit play
and the scenes are day by day would you still know
what lies behind that honeymoon
comb through all facts to learn his words are rather
heady
says he's ready to go steady would you still know
what lies behind that honeymoon
pies that you will bake when you are sittin in the
kitchen
are you listenin to what your missing would you still
know
what lies behind that honeymoon
be the first to crack when your new love must be
measured
under pressure under pleasure would you still know
what lies behind that honeymoon
suckle on the lack of all the hugs you never got
and if you rot it's what you bought would you still
know
what lies behind that honeymoon
dew lies on the haystack you were tied and you were
tethered
like a feather in stormy weather would you still know
what lies behind that honeymoon.
be the first to crack when your new love must be
measured
under pressure under pleasure would you still know
what lies behind that honeymoon
