Cotton Covering
Cotton cover your skin
From collar to hem
Making you out to be
Something you're not to me.
The engines above
An incident of mistaken identity
That drew you away from me.
And all my sleepless nights
When you were the one
I'd try and find my way back to
Over and above
Lost and lonely you.
The shapes that you throw you think I don't know
That you're in the room with me
You said you'd always be.
The cut to my cloth
I thought that I ought
To measure me to you
A thing I no longer do.
And all my sleepless nights
When you were the one
I'd try and find my way back to
Over and above
Lost and lonely you.
The shape in the door when
I can't turn over
Is this what it comes down to?
The closest I get to you?
And when I awake are you the breath that I take
Do you bring me around
Do you hope to be found
Somewhere in the fast approaching day that breaks up
All we've been before?
And all my sleepless nights
When you were the one
I'd try and find my way back to
In and out of love
With lost and lonely you.
From collar to hem
Making you out to be
Something you're not to me.
The engines above
An incident of mistaken identity
That drew you away from me.
And all my sleepless nights
When you were the one
I'd try and find my way back to
Over and above
Lost and lonely you.
The shapes that you throw you think I don't know
That you're in the room with me
You said you'd always be.
The cut to my cloth
I thought that I ought
To measure me to you
A thing I no longer do.
And all my sleepless nights
When you were the one
I'd try and find my way back to
Over and above
Lost and lonely you.
The shape in the door when
I can't turn over
Is this what it comes down to?
The closest I get to you?
And when I awake are you the breath that I take
Do you bring me around
Do you hope to be found
Somewhere in the fast approaching day that breaks up
All we've been before?
And all my sleepless nights
When you were the one
I'd try and find my way back to
In and out of love
With lost and lonely you.
