The Go-Betweens - Orpheus Beach lyrics
Your rating:
I hear you skating on the ice And wonder why you left me twice The eerie sound of blade on lake Cracks my skin and I fill with ache But I don't want this heart I don't need this blood I see you running through the grass A doctors daughter, a sky of glass My swollen eye at sunday school No saviour here under God's bright rule But I don't want this heart I don't need this blood Time to be leaving, run from your reach Gonna go dreaming on Orpheus Beach I feel you breathing in my head But better there if not in bed I wash your perfume from my clothes I don't believe that affection goes But I don't want this heart I don't need this blood Time to be leaving, run from your reach Gonna go dreaming on Orpheus Beach
