Things Of Stone & Wood Single Perfect Raindrop
Well I wander round this mind amidst the
Ruins of a lonely child
I used to think I talked with spirits
Now I think I talk with crooks
And I wonder if I ever did
Anything good at all
Ever
So I lie awake at night and vow
I'm not going to think about
I've got self deception tattooed like a flag across my back
Holding hands with war-mongers I feel I've been betrayed
Though I dance in luxury without her I'll die of thirst
She's a single perfect raindrop
When she falls she takes my breath away
Well I advertise the scars of middle classness
Like a shiny piece of junkmail
I've inherited the meanness
Like a dinner-set kept for family gatherings
But she will scream and tell me all the
Magic in her magic life
We will laugh at how I'm scared of
Everything that moves lest it crash
Into me or with me in it
I've got self deception tattooed like a flag across my back
Holding hands with war-mongers I feel I've been betrayed
Though I dance in luxury without her I'll die of thirst
She's a single perfect raindrop
When she falls she takes my breath away
Ah ..... What a dissapointment this would all be
Ah ..... What a dissapointment
'Cause I've got self deception tattooed like a flag across my back
Holding hands with war-mongers I feel I've been betrayed
Though I dance in luxury without her I'll die of thirst
She's a single perfect raindrop
When she falls she takes my breath away
