lyrics
It seems I float from room to room
Each door unopened
The smell of sweet perfume
Inhale and take a sip and then another
Can I surrender?
I will, I will just surrender
I don’t dress anymore
But bathe at dawn
And in the twilight
Days pass across me with the touch
Of raw silk
Can I surrender?
I will, I will just surrender
And when the full moon comes
I’ll watch the foxes play
Among their shadows
And then turn to face the grinning women
Spilling from the darkened corners of the room
The fire splutters and fades to embers
Of snapping orange
I will, I will just surrender
Each door unopened
The smell of sweet perfume
Inhale and take a sip and then another
Can I surrender?
I will, I will just surrender
I don’t dress anymore
But bathe at dawn
And in the twilight
Days pass across me with the touch
Of raw silk
Can I surrender?
I will, I will just surrender
And when the full moon comes
I’ll watch the foxes play
Among their shadows
And then turn to face the grinning women
Spilling from the darkened corners of the room
The fire splutters and fades to embers
Of snapping orange
I will, I will just surrender
