Winking
I've been pulling books like trophies down from walls
Striking memories like matches burn it all
Cause I know this can't last, not forever
It ain't pride, it's hope precedes the fall
Now he's been winking
It's got me thinking
Boy, are you just gonna keep showing up?
To disarm, disrobe my shield, my sword
Seat my naked on the edge of a throne?
If I break this edge
Are you prepared to catch me
In the tender-most place of your arms?
I've been keeping my shoes on, tight and laced
Eyeballing the exits just in case
But tonight I'll let myself fall asleep here
If in the morning I can see your face
Now he's been winking
It's got me thinking
Boy, are you just gonna keep showing up?
To disarm, disrobe my shield, my sword
Seat my naked on the edge of a throne?
If I break this edge
Are you prepared to catch me
In the tender-most place of your arms?
Now he's been winking
It's got me thinking
Boy, are you just gonna keep showing up?
To disarm, disrobe my shield, my sword
Seat my naked on the edge of a throne?
If I break this edge
Are you prepared to catch me
In the tender-most place of your arms?
Striking memories like matches burn it all
Cause I know this can't last, not forever
It ain't pride, it's hope precedes the fall
Now he's been winking
It's got me thinking
Boy, are you just gonna keep showing up?
To disarm, disrobe my shield, my sword
Seat my naked on the edge of a throne?
If I break this edge
Are you prepared to catch me
In the tender-most place of your arms?
I've been keeping my shoes on, tight and laced
Eyeballing the exits just in case
But tonight I'll let myself fall asleep here
If in the morning I can see your face
Now he's been winking
It's got me thinking
Boy, are you just gonna keep showing up?
To disarm, disrobe my shield, my sword
Seat my naked on the edge of a throne?
If I break this edge
Are you prepared to catch me
In the tender-most place of your arms?
Now he's been winking
It's got me thinking
Boy, are you just gonna keep showing up?
To disarm, disrobe my shield, my sword
Seat my naked on the edge of a throne?
If I break this edge
Are you prepared to catch me
In the tender-most place of your arms?
