absolute beginners - David Bowie
Ive nothing much to offer
Theres nothing much to take
Im an absolute beginner
And Im absolutely sane
As long as were together
The rest can go to hell
I absolutely love you
But were absolute beginners
With eyes completely open
But nervous all the same
If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could laugh at the ocean/sail over heartaches second time
Just like the films
Theres no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
Its absolutely true
Nothing much could happen
Nothing we cant shake
Oh were absolute beginners
With nothing much at stake
As long as youre still smiling
Theres nothing more I need
I absolutely love you
But were absolute beginners
But if my love is your love
Were certain to succeed
If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could laugh at the ocean/sail over heartaches second time
Just like the films
Theres no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
Its absolutely true
morning glory
the minimum waste of breath in the otherwise cold skin
the light weight light hearted sigil
the light with the dim light on the lips the light word of song
we uncover the body of our half sleep half naked mind half lit position
we uncover another way of rendering the hands
we uncover the heat from below
the heart again from below
and again
producing fire waiting to be stolen
again
we discover a burned object and ashes beneath the sheets
we uncover the light in our breaths and skin
and stay half awake
in flames
