How can I possibly love you
if you're so skinny?
My kisses can get lost
without a place to land
In the night, I can hear
the screams of your heart,
they tell me that it wants to flee,
that it doesn't fit in its jail
Because you're just bones, bones,
You're just bones
joined together by very little skin
Bones, bones, thin as the wind
smooth as a pin
How can I possibly hug you?
that's what I wanted to do
and how will I grab you
when we take a walk together?
People don't leave me alone
You're not a common lad
But I don't care about that,
You're the skinny girl who makes me happy
Because you're just bones, bones,
You're just bones
joined together by very little skin
Bones, bones, thin as the wind
smooth as a pin
I tell you that I love you
you can believe it
The only thing is that you're not almost here
Sometimes I wonder if you're real,
if you're just a dream or a spirit
(repeats first paragraph)
(repeats chorus)
How can I possibly love you...
Bones, bones, you're just bones, joined together by very little skin!
How can I possibly love you...
How can I love you...
