"Petal Alphabet" lyrics

"Petal Alphabet"

One by one
The clocks fall asleep one by one
Love, it caresses the head
In the daytime

Grass skirt
Rocking as it would on her hips
Grass skirt
Rocking as it would on her hips (Ah-ah-ah-ah)

Love cerebral hugs, love cerebral hugs
Skull loving ideas
Love cerebral hugs, love cerebral hugs
No more ladder anxie-tears

Tears, te-he-ars

Two by two
The real and the new me and you
Thin air is like thinking
Is like drifting in fog

Longing
Longing for the arms in the loft
Longing
Longing for the arms in the loft

Love cerebral hugs, love cerebral hugs
Skull loving ideas
Love cerebral hugs, love cerebral hugs
No more ladder anxie-tears

Tears, te-he-ars

Happy (Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, ha)
Closed door happy (Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, ha)
Open window happy (Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, ha)
Closed door happy (Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, ha)
Open window

Love cerebral hugs
Ha
Ha-ah, ah, ah-ah, ah

Three by three
The need and the needing in me
One to ten have been rewritten
Now a petal alphabet

Ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah

Love cerebral hugs, love cerebral hugs
Skull loving ideas
Ideas, ide-he-he-he-he
He-he-he-he-heas
