She gave herself, they took her to their hearts
Clapped their hands till sore, once more, eyes smart
Taxidermers gave life to you
It sits and begs and stares at you

Since when did you cook breakfast for
Lieutenant Paul in ruined mirador?
This lease on life can tie you down
So precious is the jagged crown

Talk to me
I'll stay these vagabond nights
Walk with me
Someone is waiting in the light

Exchanging worlds, arranging days
To suit a lover who'll never stay
Breakfast skies bring curtains down
Upon a crumbling lacquered gown

Ooh, talk to me
I'll stay these vagabond nights
Walk with me
Someone is waiting in the light
