Tender As A Tomb

(album: Swimmer - 2020)

With my heart in my throat
And the sun in my face
Lying here in your arms
I know this is the place

I would never try to explain how it felt when we kissed
Courting reason in dreams while my body resists

I know my logic can lose you
But I think that we can get used to

My footsteps over the concrete blistering in June
My heart leaps over the concrete
Oh I live for you
Each footstep over the concrete
Tender as a tomb
My heart leaps over the concrete
Oh I live for you

With my throat in my heart
And my face on the sun
In your arms, I will lay
Till my dreaming is done

Buried under mountains of earth
On the crest of a wave
Courting reason in love is a terrible waste

I know my logic can lose you
But I think that we can get used to

My footsteps over the concrete blistering in June
My heart leaps over the concrete
Oh I live for you
Each footstep over the concrete
Tender as a tomb
My heart leaps over the concrete
Oh I live for you
