Crack the Shutters

You cool your bedwarm hands down

On the broken radiator
And when you lay them freezing on me

I mumble can you wake me later

But I don't really want you to stop

And you know it so it doesn't stop you

You run your hands from my neck To my chest

Crack the shutters open wide I want to bathe you in the light of day

And just watch you as the rays tangle up around your face and body

I could sit for hours finding new ways to be awed each minute

Cause the daylight seems to want you just as much as I want you

It's been minutes it's been days

It's been all I will remember

Happy lost in your hair

And the cold side of the pillow

Your hills and valleys are mapped

By my intrepid fingers

And in a naked slumber

I dream all this again

Crack the shutters open wide I want to bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays tangle up around your face and body

I could sit for hours finding new ways to be awed each minute

Cause the daylight seems to want you just as much as I want you
