Bass Player

(album: A Thousand Shark's Teeth - 2008)

Bass player all alone
Makes a sound most wouldn't call a symphony
As he plays thinks of a maid sad and shuffling

She sings, "Blow me a kiss
before I drown in sorrow
Blow me a kiss before I drown"

He saw her by the moon
Dress in hand her hips were swaying
Melancholy tune, broken buckles, tired lips

Ooh, she was singing, "Blow me a kiss
before I drown in sorrow
Blow me a kiss before I drown in loneliness"

She said, "I want to be with the stars tonight so I can fly above the earth"
"I want to be by the stars tonight so I can fly above"
"I want to be with the stars tonight so I can fly above the loneliness"
