Skin And Bones (ft Charlene Kaye)

(charlene):
darling
why am i not surprised it rained today?
doesn’t it seem my broken heart just tends
to ride the wind?
but what will break the weight
that’s held up by a string?

you don’t reminisce like me about how it was
romanticizing these redundant thoughts
i’m never free
so i’ll wait for your parade to come rain down on me

i’m running around
hoping to find
somebody like
the boy that i left behind
who loved all of me
my finger nails and scatter brain
and crooked teeth

(darren):
oh dreams
don’t carry quite the weight they used to have
two kids looking through rosy colored glass
like fools in love
the summer drugged out senses
filled our eyes with stars

(charlene & darren):
but now (now)
we say goodnight confined to separated sides (sides)
and you’ll never compromise your current life
(my current life)
to look behind (to look behind)
you never planned to love me for this long a time

(charlene & darren):
i’m running around
hoping to find
somebody like

(charlene):
my love but in time i’m sure i’ll grow to know
another’s eyes another’s laugh and skin and bones

(charlene & darren):
scatting

(charlene):
but ‘til then
i’ll keep on wanting you, who i can’t have
‘cuz with the distance came this awful dam
and being in love
with one that i can’t feel or hold or see or touch

(charlene & darren):
i’m running around
hoping to find
somebody like my one though in time, i’m sure

(darren):
i’ll grow to know

(charlene & darren):
another’s eyes another’s laugh and skin and bones

love come and take me away with you.
