20060911 - My Able Body

from The Song Diary I by Paleo

/

lyrics

WHAT ARE FRIENDS FOR?


Take my able body.
Take my able body.


I've heard speeches,
stern words
amidships.


Hard-learned lessons.
In my bed,
my best friend.


A stone thrown away,
her listless
deckhands.


My best friend says,
if you care,
you'll shut up.


And take my able body.
Take my able body.


Nothing's hopeless.
He's coming back.
He'll come back for you.


Any moment.
We'll regret this.
What are friends for?


Sleeping beaches
in my book
and in my bed.


Be my friend now.
Don't be a gentleman.


Just take my able body.
Take my able body.


We all need saving.
Who knows what friends are for?
We've all got secrets.
They're all that I'll have left
now, if i lose you.
I'll take them to my grave,
where love is blameless.
Don't be a gentleman,
just be a friend.


And take my able body.
Take my able body.
Take my able body.
Take my able body.
Take my able body.
Take my able body.
Take my able body.
Take my able body.
Take my able body.
Take my able body.
