HALO

​

It was your hair that did it

It was your hair that lit the fuse

A golden-brown halo

Like sunlight peering through trees

 

I ask you for the time

But I am asking for so much more

A moth to your light bulb

You made my heart beat faster

 

Paralyse me with your kiss

Wipe those dirty hands on me

Maybe we’re looking for the same thing

Maybe you’re the one

Who’ll complete me

 

Oh how beauty burns

Lips and eyes and your fingertips

The spark of desire

On every point our bodies meet

 

Behind your eyes were stars

Infinite and serene

How I would suffer for you

You fascinate and magnetise me

 

Paralyse me with your kiss

Wipe those dirty hands on me

Maybe we’re looking for the same thing

Maybe you’re the one

Who’ll complete me

 

Sometimes I think

I would float away

If this sadness

Didn't weigh me down

 

Paralyse me with your kiss

Wipe those dirty hands on me

Maybe we’re looking for the same thing

Maybe you’re the one

Who’ll complete me
