Alpha In Tauris Lyrics

Mountain Goats Alpha In Tauris

My hand brushes against the lock of hair that hangs down
past your ear to your jaw
My hand brushes against the lock of hair that hangs down
past your ear to your jaw
it's real neat
the moment's sweet but it's all wrong

and we're pictures of decency when we wave goodbye
outside
we're pictures of decency when we wave goodbye outside
yeah, I'm the model of composure out there
but you oughta see me shaking later on

my brain gets flooded six hours later
my brain gets flooded over six hours later
rivers run with pictures of you as I stare up at the
blood red moon
lying out front on the lawn, hey
