Your Mouth Is a Garden

Thought about what I said

And I wanna take it back

Hanging on by a thread

When I knew it would snap

Can we break the head from the haft

And bury it somewhere outside?

And if you're feeling lucky

I know a good excuse

You say "If you wanna touch me

Then tell me the truth

If so many miracles happen

Why do they just pass us by?"

Just wait for it all

Wait for it all to bloom

I'll stand by the gate

I'm willing to wait for you

I can feel your heart

In the shudder of your skin

And your mouth is a garden

I'm tumbling in

And under the heat of my hands

Your eyes begin to turn snow-white

And you fall on your back

With so little in between

Arms pinned to the mattress

Like butterfly wings

And how can you not understand?

You're always in a brand-new light

Just wait for it all

Wait for it all to bloom

(Wait for it all to bloom)

I'll stand by the gate

I'm willing to wait for you

And you're carrying a weight

That's hard to hold

You wanna wake up one day

And just unfold

And start to grow

But isn't that all you do?

Just wait for it all

Wait for it all to bloom

(Wait for it all to bloom)

I'll stand by the gate

I'm willing to wait for you

I'm willing to wait for you

Always, always

Always, always

Always, always

Always, always

Always
