Oh, tell me if it's true what I heard 'Bout your skin that is covered in honey The rumors downtown They're screaming from rooftops That your skin is covered in honey Everyone I know They speak of you like you're tabloid Or maybe that's just what I believe When I walk down the streets That they're wishing that they knew what I know About what it's like to live inside a secret code A secret code I can't tell right from wrong now But I saw the sharpest curve on your upper lip Oh, tell me if it's true what I heard That it was brought here by sparrows Flewn over fields and angels approved it
Before it landed on you Oh, and I am sorry to be talking like this But with you I can only write the song of Solomon You are all beautiful, my love, that is every spot in you And this my love is what's haunting me: You will never fully be mine to win 'Cause I can never and I shall never rest inside of your skin And this my love is what's eating me: We will never really melt into one And this my love is all that's eating me: That your skin is covered in honey That your skin is covered in honey That your skin is covered in honey
