Sunset Rubdown - Coming To At Dawn lyrics
[Sunset Rubdown - Coming To At Dawn lyrics]
Obliterate the memory of coming to at dawn
Knowing only that the night was
Someplace that you had gone
Upon amber waves on the showboat of laughter
And you cannot change the way you
Slid down railings in the lobby
And then again down the gangway shortly after
Obliterate the memory of coming to at dawn
Knowing only that the night has gone
Obliterate the grass stains from the cloth
You were only in the grassy
Fields to pick a hollyhock
You want to stick it to the stem again
By fusing up the atoms and then
Believe that it will live again
Just from the power of you refusing
To believe it cannot happen
Obliterate the memory of coming to at dawn
Knowing only that the night has gone
Obliterate the memory of coming to at dawn
Knowing only that the night has gone
Wha ah ah oh oh oh oh oh
Wha ah ah oh oh oh oh oh
Wha ah ah oh oh oh oh oh
Wha ah ah oh oh oh oh oh
Obliterate the cherry and the
Wild berry juices
That you trailed along the hallways of
The whorehouse that you used
As a store room for your fox furs
And the harvest from the orchard
Full of hollyhocks and cherry trees
And other flowery images
Of course you wanted everything cold
But when you opened up the
Door everything got old
I said of course you wanted everything cold
But when you opened up the door
All the flower petals folded
Obliterate your speech so you
Cannot ask forgiveness
For hanging with the vampires when there
Was no one to witness
The submission of the skin upon your neck
All they wanted was a dance you
Gave your peace of mind instead
There is a tower with a winding set of
Stairs you will descend into
The absolute light
Into the absoluteness of light
And come aware and become aware
Wha ah ah oh oh oh oh oh
Knowing only that the night was
Someplace that you had gone
Upon amber waves on the showboat of laughter
And you cannot change the way you
Slid down railings in the lobby
And then again down the gangway shortly after
Obliterate the memory of coming to at dawn
Knowing only that the night has gone
Obliterate the grass stains from the cloth
You were only in the grassy
Fields to pick a hollyhock
You want to stick it to the stem again
By fusing up the atoms and then
Believe that it will live again
Just from the power of you refusing
To believe it cannot happen
Obliterate the memory of coming to at dawn
Knowing only that the night has gone
Obliterate the memory of coming to at dawn
Knowing only that the night has gone
Wha ah ah oh oh oh oh oh
Wha ah ah oh oh oh oh oh
Wha ah ah oh oh oh oh oh
Wha ah ah oh oh oh oh oh
Obliterate the cherry and the
Wild berry juices
That you trailed along the hallways of
The whorehouse that you used
As a store room for your fox furs
And the harvest from the orchard
Full of hollyhocks and cherry trees
And other flowery images
Of course you wanted everything cold
But when you opened up the
Door everything got old
I said of course you wanted everything cold
But when you opened up the door
All the flower petals folded
Obliterate your speech so you
Cannot ask forgiveness
For hanging with the vampires when there
Was no one to witness
The submission of the skin upon your neck
All they wanted was a dance you
Gave your peace of mind instead
There is a tower with a winding set of
Stairs you will descend into
The absolute light
Into the absoluteness of light
And come aware and become aware
Wha ah ah oh oh oh oh oh
