Danny and I were talking
Just the other day
Under the kitchen light on the cold linoleum
He said this line of work teaches you many things
But it won’t teach you to be a man
All my life I’ve been looking for someone to look after me
All my life I’ve been looking for a maid
Then I met you in the garden
Smelling flowers i’m the shade
I said, “Hello”
You said, “Love is like a daylight when it fades away”
We made a pact
We drew blood in the night
We gutted ourselves in the harsh sunlight
I wore your dress and tights
You wore my shirt and jeans
We felt like ladybugs on a leaf of evergreen
I did not know a storm word ravage this place
I did not know you held so many tears in your face
Did not know I was imperfect
Didn’t know I was no saint
Didn’t know my hands could destroy as much as they create
I helped him up from the ground where he fell
I said, “You took quite the spill”
He said, “I’m fine, oh, the wind just knocked me down”
That the weather here is the same all year round
I did not mean to lie right through my teeth
I did not mean to cause you any lost sleep
So many things I didn’t mean to do
I only ever meant it when I give myself to you
Oh, oh it’s gonna be a long time
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, it’s gonna be a long time
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, it’s gonna be a long, long, long time
Oh, oh, it’s gonna be a long time
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
