Coast
Another stone rolled through your doorway
And broke every bone, ooh
And I knelt at your feet
The throne of your sorrow
And crown of your need, ooh
Every night you call me from a foreign phone
Barely even hear me when you get me alone
My love
Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
In the mouth of an angry harbor
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast
Could not explain I wake you
How you were the cape of setting hope
Couldn't paint it in pictures, darling
I only wanted you to know
I couldn't say it though
You're making a mess, you cut up the curtains
For your evening dress, ooh
We danced like we did
Like children who don't know
What modesty is, ooh
And when we're done spinning like an errant moon
Curl up on the carpet like you're missing the womb of your mom
You can take your battles to the king of the sea
I'll be right behind, you can count on me
My love
Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
In the mouth of an angry harbor
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast
Could not explain I wake you
How you were the cape of setting hope
Couldn't paint it in pictures, darling
I only wanted you to know
Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
In the mouth of an angry harbor
I only wanted you to know
I couldn't say it though
And broke every bone, ooh
And I knelt at your feet
The throne of your sorrow
And crown of your need, ooh
Every night you call me from a foreign phone
Barely even hear me when you get me alone
My love
Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
In the mouth of an angry harbor
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast
Could not explain I wake you
How you were the cape of setting hope
Couldn't paint it in pictures, darling
I only wanted you to know
I couldn't say it though
You're making a mess, you cut up the curtains
For your evening dress, ooh
We danced like we did
Like children who don't know
What modesty is, ooh
And when we're done spinning like an errant moon
Curl up on the carpet like you're missing the womb of your mom
You can take your battles to the king of the sea
I'll be right behind, you can count on me
My love
Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
In the mouth of an angry harbor
At the lip of an unfamiliar coast
Could not explain I wake you
How you were the cape of setting hope
Couldn't paint it in pictures, darling
I only wanted you to know
Last night when I was sleeping
I had a dream my body was a boat
In the mouth of an angry harbor
I only wanted you to know
I couldn't say it though
