Purple Monkeys

I climbed a tree and left behind my lifelong stowaway

Saw the tears and came back down to take them all away

Dreaming together
You're up with the sun and it's off to the races again

In search of our our prince
We're building the scene
Not knowing when life will begin

When London Bridge came falling down and you lived in self-defeat
Please don't cry my dear one
Tomorrow will bring peace when you come down
If you come down here with me

Partners in crime
Creating ways around the rules created
Devising our plans and acting them out
Keeping them both frustrated

Engraved in love is a hate that makes the bond between us stronger

Through all the smiles there'll be those days
That make our nighttime longer

When London Bridge came falling down and you lived in self-defeat
Please don't cry my dear one
Tomorrow will bring peace when you come down

When the lights go out leaving only stars
And you loosen your grip on the handle bars
I'll be the one to make you laugh
And hold your little hand

And the purple monkeys
They come to stay
And they try to steal all your things away
I'll sacrifice myself for you
To make them understand

A shift in time forever changed the course of history

I became me and you became not me and we ceased to be we

Two women together
To each her own identity

Go where you will but my sister you'll always be

When London Bridge came falling down and you lived in self-defeat

Please don't cry my dear one
Tomorrow will bring peace
If you come down
When you come down
When you come down
If you come down here with me
