Pools lyrics

We float before the sea at dusk

In heavy mist, in glitter dust

I smile before I want to

I smile because you want to

We sip the wind through lips of lust

And out it comes, warm wisps of love

I smile because I want to

I smile because you want to

Put the flowers in your hair

Wrap your tendrils round my chest

I smile because I want to

I am your boy

Shake my little soul for you now, toy

And I settle up into a world of noise

I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy

With a battery of guilt on which to poise

Down by the shore, a funny foal

Who bit my wings and ate them whole

You left before I come to

You left before I come to

We took to hills into the trees

I hit my head and bit the leaves

You left before I come to

You left before I...

Shake my little soul for you now, toy

And I settle up into a world of noise

I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy

With a battery of guilt on which to poise

Shanks of slate fall to the beach

Wrapped in life in ultra greens

Pools teem with tiny feet

And whorls of tired anemones

You left before I got to

You left before I got to

You left before I

You left before I...

Shook the flowers from your hair

Run to me and kiss my hands

I'm dead before I...

I'm dead before I...

Shake my little soul for you now, toy

And I settle up into a world of noise

I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy

With a battery of guilt on which to poise

Shake my little soul for you now, toy

And I settle up into a world of noise

I'm a man of many tricks and tools and joy

With a battery of guilt on which to poise

I smile because I want to

I smile because I want to

I smile because I want to

I smile because I want to

I smile because I want to

I smile because I want to

I smile because I want to

I smile because I want to
