Eiderdown

You're not yourself this evening

You chose the role you want to play

I draw the curtains for you

And drag you slowly off the stage

And wrap you up in eiderdown and leave you sleeping still and soundless

But we've lost track of time and now you have to open your eyes or be left behind

Or be left behind

But you wait for my hands to heal over

Wait for my eyes to dry

Then you take my breath away

Then you take my breath away

I wrap myself around you and drag you with me to the ground

And I pretеnd I know you

Through all these weaknеsses I've found

And frame you on my bedroom wall and watch you standing still and tall

And I'd like to break the glass to watch you walk

But you're so fast and I'm scared I'll be left behind

I'll be left behind

But you wait for my hands to heal over

Wait for my eyes to dry

Then you take my breath away

Then you take my breath away

I'll wait for my hands to heal over

Wait for my eyes to dry

Then you take my breath away

Then you take my breath away
