Pale

[Verse 1]

Spending this much time

In my naked body’s

Not making it familiar to me

Trying to get used to it

I read what's on me

See-through blue’s the colour

True love leaves in tiny

[Chorus]

Marks, gone so soon

Quiet stars in mid-afternoon

Pale

[Verse 2]

“It doesn’t make me feel young”

I say “It’s something more motherly”

I’ll leave in his arms if it’s not I who has to carry

When the night rolls in

A tongue that holds me softly

I'll melt into sleep

And then am told a different story

[Chorus]

In dreams gone so soon

Roaring streams taking me to you

Pale

Pale

Pale

Pale

Gone
