Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You cool your bed warm hands down on the broken radiator
And when you laid them freezing on me
I mumbled 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
[Verse 2]
Crack the shutters open wide
I want to 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
[Verse 3]
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 of this again
[Verse 4]
Crack the shutters open wide
I want to 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
[Verse 5]
Crack the shutters open wide
I want to 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
