A Running Start
If I imagine myself peaceful
On the fire escape
Head first, my hands inside my T-shirt, as we run away
So now we have a running start
My body moves in mystic ways
I cross my arms to shield my heart
As everything turns into waves
I see the light upon the lake
The silver moon, the water snake
A pair of eyes, a gentle breeze
Forgotten tales, a wild beast
I know, I know the time has come to ask you for a kiss
Don't go, my lovely pantomime
Receive of me my only wish
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
If I align myself with Pisces in a funny way
Can you, my lover, kiss my bracelet and my shoulder blades?
We've always had a running start
I jump between the trampolines
You throw your arms around my heart
And as if to say you're all I need
The winter pines, the lonely drake
The light beneath the frozen lake
A pair of eyes, a gentle breeze
Forgotten tales, a wild beast
I know, I know the time has come to ask you for a kiss
Don't go, my lovely pantomime
Receive of me my only wish
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
La, la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la...
