Letra de Pink Bullets

[Verso 1]
I was just bony hands
As cold as a winter pole
You held a warm stone out
New flowing blood to hold
Oh, what a contrast you were
To the brutes in the halls
My timid young fingers held
A decent animal

[Coro 1]
Over the ramparts you tossed
The scent of your skin and some foreign flowers
Tied to a brick
Sweet as a song
The years have been short
But the days were long

[Verso 2]
Cool of a temperate breeze
From dark skies to wet grass
We fell in a field, it seems now
A thousand summers passed
When our kite lines first crossed
We tied 'em into knots
But to finally fly apart
We had to cut them off

[Coro 2]
Since then it's been a book
You read in reverse
So you understand less
As the pages turn
Or a movie so crass
And awkwardly cast
That even I could be the star

[Puente]
I don't look back much as a rule
And all this way before murder was cool
But your memory is here and I'd like it to stay
Warm light
On a winter's day

[Harmonica solo: James Mercer]

[Coro 3]
Over the ramparts you tossed
The scent of your skin and some foreign flowers
Tied to a brick
Sweet as a song
The years have seemed short
But the days go slowly by
Two loose kites fallen from the sky
Drawn to the ground in an end to flight
