We float before the sea at dusk
In heavy mist, in glitter dust
I smile before I want to
I smile because you want to
We sip the wind through lips of lust
And out it comes, warm wisps of love
I smile because I want to
I smile because you want to
Put the flowers in your hair
Wrap your tendrils 'round my chest
I smile because I want to
I am your boy
Shake my little soul for you now, toy
And I settle up into a world of noise
I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy
With a battery of guilt on which to poise
Down by the shore, a funny foal
Who bit my wings and ate 'em whole
You left before I come to
You left before I come to
We took the hills into the trees
I hit my hand and bit the leaves
You left before I come through
You left before I
Shake my little soul for you now, toy
And I settle up into a world of noise
I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy
With a battery of guilt on which to poise
Shanks of slate fall to the beach
Wrapped in life in ultra-green
Pools teem with tiny feet
And whorls of tired anemones
You left before I got to you
You left before I got to you
You left before I
You left before I
Shook the flowers from your hair
Run to me and kiss my hand
I'm dead before I, I'm dead before I
Shake my little soul for you now, toy
And I settle up into a world of noise
I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy
With a battery of guilt on which to poise
Shake my little soul for you now, toy
And I settle up into a world of noise
I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy
With a battery of guilt on which to poise
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
I smile because I want to
