Don't start with me now, the handles are yours. You'll see through me still, like the bibles on your shelves. Your eyes, they carry you up, but it's just mine you'll find up here. Are you truly the only one with your smile? Can't you see that it's all poured out? It's not late enough for your last, Can't you see that it's all poured out? I'm out. My chest is kept shut closed, but the scent travels to, I know you long for it girl, every time you see me. When my arms wrap around your body, and you take it with you. Do i see things in your eyes? i still fall short by the years And then you go, go back, To the bed of your man. Redolent of my musk, you go back, To the bed of your man.

If I'm a bird, I'll fly up to the heavens and ask God How you were made so lovely If I'm a tree, I'll be your shade when it's too warm outside Your shield when it's drizzling too hard If I'm a bird, I'll fly up so high to guide you home Through the safest path out of here If I'm a tree, I'll always stand tall beside you and I'll always take care of you I will save the world I will save the world I will save the world for you
