Pillow
Skinny bones, fat pay checks
We had too much of that stuff
You said you were under stress
So I offered you a pillow
Pillow baby make me go
Make me leave this house
Still I'd love a good show
Wouldn't want to miss a second
Rest now, let it fall
Look down my aim and see
I'll be taken, I'll be yours
If you show up in my dream
Safe house, right here
We went up the floors
Drink tray always near
Everything is crystal clear
Slow kissing, pillow beauty
I've been feeling like a pig
I'm gonna make a morning smoothie
Mix it with a little pill
Lie here with our beat
This is our parade
Lie and let it kiss your feet
Sleep and I'll make sure we'll meet
Scared face, gentle heart
Tell it how it really is
Paranoid from the start
Even when we try to kiss
If you stay for a day
You might see the final glimmer
Trust this is ok
This way we can stop the spinning
Comfort me, you said
Take me to the sea
Where we'll run in circles
As free as we can be
Sleep on it, let it show
Your days can be my nights
We go deep inside the pillows
Buried all our fright
-
This can all be ours, if you believe
Don't weaken your knees ever
Stay class and act fast
It shows you are for real
And still I sometimes find myself afraid
Of all the nights ahead
We had too much of that stuff
You said you were under stress
So I offered you a pillow
Pillow baby make me go
Make me leave this house
Still I'd love a good show
Wouldn't want to miss a second
Rest now, let it fall
Look down my aim and see
I'll be taken, I'll be yours
If you show up in my dream
Safe house, right here
We went up the floors
Drink tray always near
Everything is crystal clear
Slow kissing, pillow beauty
I've been feeling like a pig
I'm gonna make a morning smoothie
Mix it with a little pill
Lie here with our beat
This is our parade
Lie and let it kiss your feet
Sleep and I'll make sure we'll meet
