Blossom Lyrics

For present company's sake

I won't keep barnacling you

Every step like a three-legged race

Just like I promised to do

Oh, holy clergyman, wait

I've got to kiss her once more

Days like these shake my faith at the knees

And make me believe in her

Distance is more than a matter of miles

More than the meantime plus eight

Living apart left me half of my heart some days

For the duration of flight

Your ever-negative guy will

Til Haneda, pull his mask tight

You'll have to imagine my smile

And when we're nineteen floors up

At the north of La Tour

Hard to say if we'll laugh or we'll cry

We've never been married before

Rest assured that I would give my word

If my word didn't give me away

Not as strong as my songs make me seem, I'm afraid

Snow and the blossom aground

A fortnight past the ides

Hail on the thirty-first day and ave

Fate picks the place and the time, Lord

Fate picks the place and the time
