Look Out (Botticelli Girl)

On some south Philly street that Christmas Eve Outside Termini's you tugged my sleeve Manger scenes, those frosted window panes You gestured with a Marlboro Light Snow silent, sure a holy night When autumn planes cast a spell, I said "Let's head out West." The towers fell Aphrodite, you, and me floating down The shoreline breeze and Undertow tempests less serene Look out Botticelli Girl From the sea glowing pearl A lovely view somewhere in Rome A masterpiece so far from home Low Beach at sunrise bird in flight In ancient footprints, echoes bite I've seen so much in fractured dreams Cherub winds, lush rainy springs What got lost took more than we could bring Look out Botticelli Girl In your eyes live timeless worlds Feel sand on our skin that shone The Birth of Love, our end unknown Painted life, endless sun Now we lie in ashes. Phoenix young Born and nervous from the flame Ocean waves wash away the pain Look out Botticelli Girl From the sea glowing pearl A lovely view, somewhere in Rome A masterpiece so far from home Look out Look out Look out Look out
