my boyfriend looks like jesus

My boyfriend looks like Jesus
He loves me for no reason
When we kiss the sun comes up
My boyfriend looks like Jesus

He came to me like the warmth of spring
He said "I promise to smile, if you promise to sing"
I said "those other boys have been so mean
So please don't promise me anything
I just want to see and be seen"
Man made love some flippant game
He said "Babe please don't let them ruin my name"
A callous heart does pump in vain
But maybe his is not same
I'll be his wild card if he wants to play

My boyfriend looks like Jesus
He loves me for no reason
When we kiss the son comes up
My boyfriend looks like Jesus

He layed me down like Lazarus
He said "Babe open up and let me in"
With each tear I knew I'd live
When I cry a river, he walks on it
He loves my rising tide and all my sin
He knows the name of every star in space
He said "I should know, I put them in their place"
Sometimes in the clouds I see his face
And on my lips he's all I taste
Tobacco and angel food cake

My boyfriend looks like Jesus
He loves me for no reason
When we kiss the sun comes up
My boyfriend looks like Jesus
