lyrics

I try to make it all funny
 As we’re getting undressed
 I can’t stay in a feeling 
(Fire in the garden!) 
But can we try again? 
Breathe against my chest 
Cause we are more than just friends 
Wake this motionless lover

Move into me 
Don’t move into me 
Place your lips upon me 
Put a medicine there 
Every kiss I take I’ll make another to share 
Look into me 
Don’t look into me
 Honey yes of course Take the time you need to open up 
Your body is yours!

Seven men with their hands upon my chest 
Drawing pictures on me 
They didn’t have my permission
 (Robbers in the temple!) 
When I woke there were stones around by bed 
And where my body had been 
An indescribable hollow

Move into me 
Don’t move into me
 Cuddle up my belly
 Make a medicine there
 But every time I catch an eye
 I’m suddenly scared 
Look into me 
Don’t look into me
 Honey yes of course 
Take the time you need to open up
 Your body is yours!

Your body is yours
 Your body is yours
 If only for a moment
Your spirit is yours 
Your spirit is yours 
No one can control it

This is the second in a series of weekly album reviews published by Andrew Dubber. If you haven’t already caught it, please check out his introductory post. The world appears to be littered with bearded young men with acoustic guitars and notebooks full of verse, access to old pianos, and mournful string players.
