Closer Than A Tattoo
all I have is one picture
from our summer of love
standing on the bridge like you`re reading scripture
from the clouds above
I like to think it was me
put that spark in your eyes of flint
pressed the shutter couldn`t breathe
knowing you weren`t one to blink
train clattering round the bend
there`s no full stop at our story`s end
a tear of candlewax
hides the tree where we sheltered
the sun and moon my defences stood no chance
when you danced by the river
said we`re never going back
with our bodies and with ink
we`d stitch our fate make it fact
an indelible link
pulling out to the chains length
the best laid plans with all our strength
hearts too full
hearts too full for our lips to speak
if I could choose
choose the words a day with you to keep
clearer than a picture
closer than a tattoo
carry my dreams from the attic to the cellar
you and me girl in Kodachrome forever
hearts too full
hearts too full for our lips to speak
if I could choose
choose the words a day with you to keep
clearer than a picture
closer than a tattoo
