close to me
high
lullaby





close to me

i've waited hours for this
i've made myself so sick
i wish i'd stayed asleep today
i never thought that this day would end
i never thought that tonight could ever be
this close to me
just try to see in the dark
just try to make it work
to feel the fear before you're here
i make the shapes come much too close
i pull my eyes out
hold my breath
and wait until i shake
but if i had your faith
then i could make it safe and clean
if only i was sure
that my head on the door was a dream
i've waited hours for this
i've made myself so sick
i wish i'd stayed asleep today
i never thought that this day would end
i never thought that tonight could ever be
this close to me
but if i had your face
i could make it safe and clean
if only i was sure
that my head on the door
was a dream





high

do do do do do do
do do do do do do
when i see you sky as a kite
as high as i might
i can't get that high
and how you move
the way you burst the clouds
it makes me want to try
and when i see you sticky as lips
as licky as trips
i can't lick that far
but when you pout
the way you shout out loud
it makes me want to start
and when i see you
happy as a girl
that swims in a world
of magic show
it makes me bite
my fingers through
to think i could've let you go
and when i see you
take the same sweet steps
you used to take
i say i'll keep on holding you
my arms so tight
i'll never let you slip away
do do do do do do (x7)
da da da da da da
and when i see you
kitten as a cat (ow)
yeah as smitten as that (ow)
i can't get that small
the way you fur
the how you purr
it makes me want to paw you all
and when i see you (do do do do)
happy as a girl
that lives in a world (do do do
do) of make-believe (do do do do)
it makes me pull my hair all out
to think i could've let you leave
and when i see you
take the same sweet steps
you used to take i know
i'll keep on holding you
in arms so tight
they'll never let you go (never let you go)





lullaby

on candystripe legs spiderman comes
softly through the shadow of the evening sun
stealing past the windows of the blissfully dead
looking for the victim shivering in bed
searching out fear in the gathering gloom
and suddenly a movement in the corner of the room
and there is nothing i can do when i realise with freight
that the spiderman is having me for dinner tonight
quietly he laughs and shaking his head
creeps closer now closer to the foot of the bed
and softer than shadow and quicker than flies
his arms are all around me and his tongue in my eyes
"be still be calm be quiet now my precious boy
don't struggle like that or i will only love you more
for it's much too late to get away or turn on the light
the spiderman is having you for dinner tonight"
and i feel like i'm being eaten by
a thousand million shivering furry holes
and i know that in the morning
i will wake up in the shivering cold
and the spiderman is always hungry
