Beekeeper
In the middle of everything I started to seeYou said you were a beekeeper, but I heard no beesI asked you where do you get your honeyYou said darling I'm a beekeeper, I'm up to my knees.Oh I'm a lonely sailor on a sinking boatSometimes I think I'm a mermaid but I never floatYou asked me why I didn't send you a noteI threw my pen in the gutter with what I wrote.Oh, oh, just like a dove on a bay riverside with a little black crow.Wanna know all of the ribs in your cage.Too bad two part of me lives in you, and I'm a goddamn foolMake your move or get out of the game.At the end of the tunnel I can see the lightI promised you I wouldn't go down without a fightI know it won't always be black and white'Cause there are demons and things that go bump in the night.So swallow your bitter pillYou said you were a thrill seeker well what's your thrill?It's the way you walk, it's the way you stand stillAnd the way that you looked at me and always will.Hey, today's the day, are you ready to fall, are you ready to jumpSongtexteFrom a plane with a stranger on your backHigh in the sky, you look back and where am I at - I'm a man in disguiseTongue-tied you started to crackStarted to crack and the sky's turning blackAnd I'm stuck in you like a thumbtackBetween my legs and my arms you're alarmedBut I won't hurt you - just want to charm you.Wanna be there, and I wanna be thereI won't let you goA beekeeper a thrill seekerHit the ground running,"Told you so..."
