Alabaster (Bert Jansch Studio Version)

Alabaster Are you coming around after? We could light a candle We could help it untangle Won't you hold me, Alabaster? 'Cause I'm caught in a trap I'm alone and the power's out Home and she's not around And we can fix it after But the answer is I know it's the wrong way to want you But we're already here And it's happening The wounds are unfastening It's a natural disaster Alabaster Round the corner We can call from the car I am losing my appetite And I'm so tired We're on a faultline Half this city's on fire Maybe just one last time Maybe just one last time Maybe just one last time (I know it's the wrong way to want you) 'Cause we're already here And it's happening The wounds are unfastening It's a natural disaster Alabaster We can fix it after (It's a natural disaster) We can fix it after (Won't you hold me, Alabaster?) We can fix it after
