"Small Bones" lyrics

"Small Bones"

She left her coat down in the club to see if I would offer mine
I'd rather wrap my arm around her, feel the small bones in her spine
She moved to London yesterday, told me I had missed my chance
Didn't seem to seem that way, when she's asking me to dance
When she's asking me to dance
When she's asking me to dance
When she's asking me to dance

Sunglasses tucked down her top, I'd break the law to catch her eye
Her effervescence was effortless; nonchalant, bona-fide
She doesn't live that far away
Medium-distance romance, just a Virgin pendolino
And she's asking me to dance
Then she's asking me to dance
Then she's asking me to dance
Then she's asking me to dance
Then she's asking me

Small bones
Rest on me now
With your small bones
With your rest on me now

Be weirder, said what you need to say

I've seen you in my dreams, honey
I've watched you in my sleep
We were drinking in the bars, darlin'
Dancing down the street
I've seen you in my dreams, honey
I've watched you in my sleep
We were drinking in the bars, darlin'
Dancing down the street
I've seen you in my dreams, honey
I've watched you in my sleep
We were drinking in the bars, darlin'
Dancing down the street

Small bones
Rest on me now
With your small bones
Rest on me now

I've seen you in my dreams, honey
I've watched you in my sleep
We were drinking in the bars, darlin'
Dancing down the street
I've seen you in my dreams, honey
I've watched you in my sleep
We were drinking in the bars, darlin'
Dancing down the street
