Magnificent Gestures (feat. Ed Dowie)

Truly I like to dream
Romance is company
Permeates the concrete ground
Puts my head in a car park

Hold her hand, talk to me
Assume the weight of family
Sell the billboard gallery
She was born with no lips
Drip, drip, drips

Hey now, magnificent gestures
Could hold my love
Could open windows
But the room escapes me
The teachers let go
It's such a shame
And I'm writing it down
We will have to talk
But I'm writing it down
The room escapes me
And I'm writing it down
Forever be on guard

Truly I'm at your feet
Turning cards from memory
Pinball for the royal lip
A heart is a skip
Drip, drip, drip

Time will repeat it
Time will defile
I can't repeat it
I was born with no lips
Drip, drip, drips

Hey now, magnificent gestures
Could hold my love
Could open windows
But the room escapes me
The teachers let go
It's such a shame
And I'm writing it down
We will have to talk
Magnificent gestures
And I just feel low
I don't know why
The mood escapes me
And I'm writing it down
The room escapes me
And I'm writing it down
She has a teacher's tongue
She has a mother's eyes

And I'm writing it down
And I'm writing it down
And I'm writing it down
And I'm writing it down
And I'm writing it down
And I'm writing it down
And I'm writing it down
And I'm writing it down
And I'm writing it down
And I'm writing it down
And I'm writing it down
And I'm writing it down
