Ivory (Reprise)

Oh Ivory, won't you let me down if
I swear to repent of my sins?
And could you promise that you'd let me be if
I swear to set you free again?

She's got soft pale skin and hazel eyes, it's
Stuff that will make you cry
Over and over, you know?
And Ivory, I know it's hard for you but
It's even harder to let you go, oh

And I'm falling for your Ivory skin
But love fills me till I'm broke
And broken men incline to sin

Oh Ivory, you should read the words I
Sealed in a letter just for you
That in my blood there lives a rotting love
That kills me until I'm rotten, too

And my sorrow secret on my tongue tastes
Like sorrow gone to waste
But I know, yeah, I know it shows
And Ivory, I know it's hard for you so
Let my sorrow pour onto you

So what I'm falling for you once again?
If it breaks me at least it filled me once
For love's sake, I'm broken

Oh Ivory, how could I not fall when
You're where my world begins and ends?
And when she smiles it's like the stars align and
Everything will be fine, you know?
I hope she knows

And Ivory, it's been a while
Since you and I have
Hung out
And Ivory, let me down slow
If you insist on
Letting me go
And Ivory, I'll be alone
If you want me to be
On my own
And Ivory
I hope you know
That I'd bite my tongue if
I could control
But Ivory, I've no control
This love consumed me
And tore through my soul

Ivory
Can't you let me down easily?
