lyrics
standing by the open gate, amy had to hesitate
as she thought to close the door, secret lover on the floor
someday we can hold her hand and she knows we'll understand, but until the day she dies, we'll fall into
amy's eyes
i had my time with the girl of mystery,
she had two hearts and put one inside me,
in the cool grass, she walked like a tambourine,
she knows your face and all of your pedigrees
deep beneath the covers i can see the future in my palms,
share with me yr costume powers before the night is gone
anyway i thought you'd like to know
your heart is in a red hotel in rome
and your eye is in my brain, and it feels so very strange
if i had a dime for all of her histories
throw three dollars at yr anatomy
she let somebody into her little wing
could there ever be a better remedy
deep beneath the covers i can see the future in my palms,
share with me yr costume powers before the night is gone
anyway i thought i'd like to say
your heart is in a sandy beach in maine
and your eye is in my brain, and it feels so very strange
if i could love someone, i would be on my way
if i could speak in tongues, it wouldn't feel the same
if i could love myself, i would be on my way
if i could speak in songs, wouldn't this life be so mundane?
standing by the open gate, amy couldn't care to wait
as she went to close the door, lovers sighing on the floor
someday we can hold her hand and she knows we'll understand, but until the day she dies, we'll fall into
amy's eyes
