Song For A Clock Lyrics

Portastatic Song For A Clock

last night we just fell into bed
and let the poison drain out of our head
before the sun strikes shade across the back of your bare
legs we'll be sleepin'
heavy with love instead

heavy with love instead

be still, be still please
oh i just want everything to freeze
those skinny little arms are a windmill
we all tumble forward like a crooked old wheel, i know
i know, but tonight be still
please be still

this mornin' i was made aware
as i tried to cut the back of my hair
of the first mosquito of the year
buzzin' down the surface of the mirror
like winter never happened and another summer's near
but i just want to keep the calendar here

be still, be still please
oh i just want this frame to freeze
those skinny little arms are a windmill
and we all tumble forward like a crooked old wheel, i
know
i know, but today be still
please be still
