Virgin's Lullaby - Rebekka Bakken

It’s sinfully late and I’m sinfully drunk

I’ve sinfully spoken a whole lot of junk

but I’m sinfully happy with things as they are

I haven’t yet fallen asleep

And I didn’t do it, I really did not

go off to lose the one thing I’ve got;

the idea that I have, whatever that means

the chastity belt of a queen

And that ain’t easy

with all these men everywhere

and all the love in the air

No that ain’t easy

I’m sure gonna know all the day after lows

with pains and ills and neurotic chills

but I’m perfectly safe, thank God I am home

Thank God I’ll be waking alone

And that ain’t easy

when there are so many men

and I love all of them

No that ain’t easy

with all these men everywhere

and all the love in the air

Yes it’s hopelessly late and

I’m hopelessly gone

thank God I’ll be waking,

thank God I’ll be waking,

at least I’ll be waking — alone
