lyrics

SLEEPING ON STRANGE PILLOWS

She always wanted to come in from the biting cold
Face down in music drenching her hungry soul
That child lay long in a sterilised hospital bed
Longing for escape through the songs in her head

Craving crayons in a big box with silver and gold
To draw out those pictures that will be a sight to behold
So many faces you have loved are in in your words
You opened your mouth wide and out flew a songbird

Constantly in the darkness, desperate to break free
Sleeping in a cave, washing your hair in the sea
Living in the birthplace of Western civilisation
Then a spreading blue, a lasting wondrous creation

Sleeping on strange pillows she would write one day
About an aviator whose Electra lost its way
She could do just about every damn artistic endeavour
That fine fattened up body of work is going to last forever

If you play the fool on an invite to her music room
She might bark and bite in a voice that’s out of tune
The crown of flowers that she used to wear
Cannot be seen now but we all know that it’s there

Constantly in the darkness, desperate to break free
Sleeping in a cave, washing your hair in the sea
Living in the birthplace of Western civilisation
Then a spreading blue, a lasting wondrous creation
