Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He was so kind, such a gentleman tied to the oceanside
Lighting a match on the suitcase's latch in the fading of night
[Verse 2]
Ruffle the fur of the collie 'neath the table
Ran out the door through the dark
Carved out his initials in the bark
[Verse 3]
Then the Earth shook, that was all that it took for the dream to break
All the loose ends would surround me again in the shape of your face
What makes me love you despite the reservations
What do I see in your eyes
Besides my reflection hanging high
[Verse 4]
Are you somewhere reciting incantations
Sim sala bin on your tongue
Carving off the hair of someone's young
[Verse 5]
Remember when you had me cut your hair
Call me Delilah then, I wouldn't care
