My Sweetheart the Skeleton

from Stranger Hug! by Ian Taylor

/

lyrics

Where the harlots weep
Where the shadows sleep
That's where you'll find Decembers crooked teeth.
Where the isolation peaks
Where the waters are deep
Where you drown to breathe
That's where you'll find me.
My sweetheart the skeleton
May we one day meet again
And I hate to see it die this way,
Cause everybody runs away.
And I miss my beautiful friend
My sweetheart the skeleton.
You were the ocean to me
I miss you bitterly
And I only hope you find someone better than me.
I wear your love on my wrist
This sweet bracelet
It's the closest I'll get
To my beloved comet.
Your silver eyes are the best
I keep you separate
From everyone I've ever met.
My sweetheart the skeleton
May we one day meet again
And I hate to see it die this way,
Cause everybody runs away.
And I miss my beautiful friend
My sweetheart the skeleton.
