lyrics

I need your honey scent. Your amber brown tone.
And me, I must depend upon your passing glance to get by.

It seems that then, I should wait til when you want me to come home.
Or be that man who just casts about to parts unneeded/unknown.

And I should stop before these thoughts get the best of me.
Before I sit on the edge of my bed and I recall it all as if it was a dream.

…What I mean… it’s like the scene from when we were at your house
and you left marks upon my throat.

…Or that love note we read and we laughed and wept.
Well yeah that was mean, but who was to know.

…Your sweet white peach... we planted the seed
and you took a bet. You said that nothing would grow.

And I should stop before these thoughts consume the whole of me.
Before I sit on the edge of my bed and relive it all as if it was a dream.

What I mean is … I need your honey scent. Your amber brown tone.
And me, I must depend upon your passing glance to get by.

It seems that then, I should wait til when you want me to come home.
Or be that man who just casts about to parts unneeded/unknown.

And I should stop before these thoughts make a fool of me
Before I sit on the edge of my bed and I want it all as if it was a dream.

What I mean is that you’re facing me, you put your hand on my cheek
and say “you poor thing, you need a home.”
… …

I wake up it’s morning.
I’m so much better now.
So much better now.
