The Scarf I Gave You
Often I found myself
Lost in the clouds
Wondering why
Nothing compares
When I'm lost her arms
Oceans of fire
Lightning that doesn't hurt
59 days she was on my mind for once
'Cause she never left
So I told the wind
To give you a kiss
The scarf that I've given you
Will hold you when I'm gone
And I told the stars
To sing you to sleep
This song they'll be singing
Is written just for you
I think I miss you
Some mornings I feel trifling
At gloamings less than nothing
I swear that I've been climbing
Then breaking, aching
Messing 'round, tumbling down
A distressed dismissed clown
It's not the crown that frowns
But a sound that yearns to drown
A waste of stardust
Your displaced trust
But then I saw you
The best shade of earth and blue
A portrait Sandro once drew
Your starry eyes
I'm starry-eyed
Tell me what you're thinking
Tell me what you want
You're gone and now I'm sinking
My mind is yours to haunt
Wish I'm the wind that gives you a kiss
I wish I'm the star that sings you to sleep
So I told the wind
To give you a kiss
The scarf that I've given you
Will hold you when I'm gone
And I told the stars
To sing you to sleep
This song they'll be singing
Is written just for you
I think I miss you
Lost in the clouds
Wondering why
Nothing compares
When I'm lost her arms
Oceans of fire
Lightning that doesn't hurt
59 days she was on my mind for once
'Cause she never left
So I told the wind
To give you a kiss
The scarf that I've given you
Will hold you when I'm gone
And I told the stars
To sing you to sleep
This song they'll be singing
Is written just for you
I think I miss you
Some mornings I feel trifling
At gloamings less than nothing
I swear that I've been climbing
Then breaking, aching
Messing 'round, tumbling down
A distressed dismissed clown
It's not the crown that frowns
But a sound that yearns to drown
A waste of stardust
Your displaced trust
But then I saw you
The best shade of earth and blue
A portrait Sandro once drew
Your starry eyes
I'm starry-eyed
Tell me what you're thinking
Tell me what you want
You're gone and now I'm sinking
My mind is yours to haunt
Wish I'm the wind that gives you a kiss
I wish I'm the star that sings you to sleep
So I told the wind
To give you a kiss
The scarf that I've given you
Will hold you when I'm gone
And I told the stars
To sing you to sleep
This song they'll be singing
Is written just for you
I think I miss you
