Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Our bed we live, our bed we sleep
Making love and I become you
Flesh is warm with naked feet
Stabbing thorns and you become me
[PreChorus]
Oh, oh, I'd beg for you
Oh, oh, you know I'd beg for you
[Chorus]
Pick a song and sing a yellow nectarine
Take a bath, I'll drink the water that you leave
If you should die before me ask if you can bring a friend
Pick a flower, hold your breath, and drift away
[Verse 2]
She holds my hand, we share a laugh
Sipping orange blossom breezes
Love is still but sweat remains
A cherished gift, unselfish feeling
[PreChorus]
Oh, oh, I'd beg for you
Oh, oh, you know I'd beg for you
[Chorus]
Pick a song and sing a yellow nectarine
Take a bath, I'll drink the water that you leave
If you should die before me ask if you can bring a friend
Pick a flower, hold your breath, and drift away
[Verse 3]
She tells me things, I listen well
Drink the wine and save the water
Skin is smooth, I steal a glance
Dragonflies are flying over
[PreChorus]
Oh, oh, I'd beg for you
Oh, oh, you know I'd beg for you
[Chorus]
Pick a song and sing a yellow nectarine
Take a bath, I'll drink the water that you leave
If you should die before me ask if you can bring a friend
Pick a flower, hold your breath, and drift away
