Crack the shutters - live in london

You cool your bed-warm hands down

On the broken radiator

And when you lay them freezing on me

I mumble, "Can you wake me later?"

But I don't really want you to stop

And you know it so it doesn't stop you

And run your hands from my neck to my chest

Crack the shutters open wide

I wanna bathe you in the light of day

And just watch you as the rays

Tangle up around your face and body

I could sit for hours finding new ways

To be awed each minute

'Cause the daylight seems to want you

Just as much as I want you

It's been minutes, it's been days

It's been all I will remember

Happy lost in your hair

And the cold side of the pillow

Your hills and valleys

Are mapped by my intrepid fingers

And in a naked slumber

I dream all this again

Crack the shutters open wide

I wanna bathe you in the light of day

And just watch you as the rays

Tangle up around your face and body

I could sit for hours finding new ways

To be awed each minute

'Cause the daylight seems to want you

Just as much as I want you

Crack the shutters open wide

I wanna bathe you in the light of day

And just watch you as the rays

Tangle up around your face and body

I could sit for hours finding new ways

To be awed each minute

'Cause the daylight seems to want you

Just as much as I want you
