Album: Vices And Virtues (2011)

Nearly Witches (Ever Since We Met...)

My wing tips waltz across naive
Wood floors they creak
Innocently down the stairs

Drag melody
My percussive feet serve cobweb headaches as a
Matching set of marching clocks
The slumbering apparitions
That they've come to wake up

(do do do do)

Here I am composing a burlesque
Out of where they rest their necks
Sunken in their splintered cradles
And ramshackle heads
They asked for it
As a girl

You have set your heart
On haunting me forever
From the start
It's never silent

Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing
That makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret to live through
And that one regret is you

How does a heart love, if no one has noticed its presence
And where does it go?
Trembling hands play my heart like a trombone
The beats gone and lost in the show

You have set your heart
On haunting me forever
From the start
It's never silent

Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing
That makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret to live through
And I regret never letting you go!

Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing
That makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret to live through
And that one regret is you

Mona Lisa pleased to please ya
(And that one regret is you)
Mona Lisa pleased to please ya
(And that one regret is you)
Mona Lisa pleased to please ya
