Like Bones - Della Mae

Early in the morning

Before you leave

Just before dawn

Just after a dream

Our eyes barely open

Legs tangled in sheets

I’ve never felt love so tenderly

We lay like lovers

Lay like stones

Lay in the darkness and let the time pass

Like a stream

Till it turns us back to bone

Your heart it is beating

A rhythm so slow

I’d stay here forever

If you didn’t go

Let you rock me to sleep

On your chest where I lay

Let the light of the morning

Come in through the shades

We lay like lovers

Lay like stones

Lay in the darkness and let the time pass

Like a stream

Till it turns us back to bone

As we lie between

Asleep and awake

I’ll wait 'till the moment

When the dream has to break

I’ll love you the same as when the sun dies

But the truest moment

Is when she does rise!

We lay like lovers

Lay like stones

Lay in the darkness and let the time pass

Like a stream

Till it turns us back to bone
