lyrics

Inside a Cave

You in your fruit dress me in my slacks
Wait right here I'll be right back
'Cause winter is too long and so is the night
And you and I will be alright
Alone inside a cave tonight
We'll wait until the sun arrives

Painting the walls with gloomy blue figures
That clutch skulls with crooked fingers
Climbing a tower on Mohican ground
Then we'll come down and sit around
Alone inside a cave tonight
We'll wait until the sun arrives

Come inside and bring your book of pictures
Don't forget your complicated matrix
Hearth is home, there's nothing wrong
Drunk and stoned where we belong
Beside a dancing flame

After the fall-out toothless and told
Your dress is torn the truth is old
You've got my eyelash, and I've got your hair
We're all jokes and laughs when we're
Alone inside a cave tonight
We'll wait until the sun arrives

Don't turn off the stereo don't turn off the stereo
music keeps our bodies warm
