I'm quenching my incessant thirst for beauty
Tasting the orange skylight
Quenching my incessant thirst for beauty
Sensual girls pass me by
All dressed in autumn and silk
I'm painfully searching for perfection
Though I know there is none to be found
Constantly hoping for affection
For a queen I'm determined to crown
Delicious as coffee with milk
I'll dream a dream I haven't dreamt before
Then recall the half-forgotten her
Sea green ribbons in her lovely ginger ringlets
A cobblestone road clad in gold
Sea green ribbons in her lovely ginger ringlets
Never does what she's told
I'm the shoulder for her to cry on
Adore her smile
As if a child
Yes I am
I've found my heaven in the morning sun
Half as gentle as her arms
She could have filled the empty half of me
Behind that moss-grown wall
Should have filled the empty half of me
Drown in the ice blue skies
And you'll see that here it's not cold at all
How predictable but how beautiful
The scent of coffee tops up the air so cool
Hour by hour
Collecting moments
Airing thoughts
I wonder how she's going to sleep tonight
Lights on for departure, all right
Hour by hour
Collecting moments
Airing thoughts
I wonder how I'm going to sleep tonight
I'd steal her for sure, all right
