lyrics

Thirst & water

When only on rosegrows
You still have to choose it
A hungry heart can beat still
Even in hands that feed it

Ive got a match
Your tears and my shoulder
Your hearts growing cold
And mines getting older

It’l l come don’t shun
The sun just succumb to it

Im wearing the coat
U said it would never suit me
I put on weight and stood up straight
To try and make it fit correctly

Ive got a match
My thirst and your water
Your heart’s tight and taut
Mine’s tighter and tauter
