B. P. Valenzuela Building song lyrics

my love is building a building around you

a frail slippery house

a strong fragile house

(beginning at the singular beginning of your smile)

a skillful uncouth prison

a precise clumsy prison

(building that and this into thus, around the reckless magic of your mouth)

my love is building a magic

a discrete tower of magic and (as i guess)

when farmer death (whom fairies hate)

shall crumble the mouth-flower fleet

he'll not my tower,

laborious, casual

where the surrounded smile

hangs

breathless

you said

look me in the eye and offer me a drink, would you?

take me for a ride and teach me how to dance, would you?

run your hands through my haur and pull me closer

forget my name in the morning when you wake up

you said

take this paper ring and marry me tonight, can you

put me out of my misery

im all alone and

hold me in the dark

im scared of what's beyond tonight

remember me when you look back on the good times

you run away everytime

i get a little bit close

you run at the notion of

being anywhere with anyone who gives a fuck

i don't want to wake up

you said

time flies, love dies, people walk away

memories are ghosts of moments you can't have again

let go of inhibitions keeping you from loving me

but don't fall in love with me

please don't fall in love with me

you run away everytime

i get a little bit close

you run at the notion of

being anywhere with anyone who gives a fuck

you run away everytime

i get a little bit close

you run at the notion of

being anywhere with anyone
