Paroles de French Braid
Can I say somethingI'm naked as a jaybird babe
And I know that, but this won't wait
I like your really tight French braid
Duly noted now do you mind
I been tryna tell you a secret
We can let the great world roll on
Maybe we can roll on with it
Polaroids, Del Maguey, so much noise, so much play
What I want are the frozen nights
We can hide, and later find
Then live again, oh
So
I wouldn't change a goddamn thing
And I'm counting all the years in transit
When the fruit got strange
And we knew each other, we replanted
Your sturdy bones
Pretty and gold inlaid
I grip and hold
Just like your tight French braid
My mother tongue
Though I've forgotten somw To move their beds
When the fruit gets strange
We can let the great world roll on
Maybe we can roll on with it
Polaroids, Del Maguey, so much noise, so much play
What I want are the frozen nights
We can hide, and later find
Then live again, oh
So
I wouldn't change a goddamn thing
And I'm counting all the years in transit
When the fruit got strange
And we knew each other, we replanted
Your sturdy bones
Pretty and gold inlaid
I grip and hold
Just like your tight French braid
My mother tongue
Though I've forgotten somw To move their beds
When the fruit gets strange
