| You're so gentle and so soft. |
| I like you, 'cause it looks to me |
| Like you are caught |
| Between two or three worlds; I am, too. |
| Is it ok to say I see some of myself in you? |
| And even though I know I'm not for you, |
| Is it ok to say I really do adore you? |
| And I would give anything |
| To be the one who kisses you. |
| |
| Smelled your jacket |
| When you left it on its lonely post, |
| Wrapped it 'round me |
| Like it was the holiest of ghosts. |
| Oh, your smell, it came through. |
| Mmm, made me wish |
| I had my face buried in you. |
| You're soft, you’re soft, |
| you're old but you’re younger. |
| Oh, how I wish |
| I had my head upon your shoulder. |
| Oh, how I wish that I could sell myself to you |
| And do the things that only lovers do. |
| |
| And even though I know I'm not for you, |
| Is it ok to say I really do adore you, |
| And I would give anything |
| To be the one who kisses you |
| Goodnight, |
| Goodnight? |
| |
| Oh, close your eyes. |
| Meet me at that crazy apple tree in heaven; |
| We’ll go dancing all night. |
