You cool your bed-warm hands down
On the broken radiator
And when you lay them freezing on me
I mumble, "Can you wake me later?"But I don't really want you to stop
And you know it so it doesn't stop you
And run your hands from my neck to my chestCrack the shutters open wide
I wanna bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays
Tangle up around your face and bodyI could sit for hours
Finding new ways to be awed each minute
'Cause the daylight seems to want you
Just as much as I want youIt's been minutes, it's been days
It's been all I will remember
Happy lost in your hair
And the cold side of the pillowYour hills and valleys
Are mapped by my intrepid fingers
And in a naked slumber
I dream all this againCrack the shutters open wide
I wanna bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays
Tangle up around your face and bodyI could sit for hours
Finding new ways to be awed each minute
'Cause the daylight seems to want you
Just as much as I want youCrack the shutters open wide
I wanna bathe you in the light of day
And just watch you as the rays
Tangle up around your face and bodyI could sit for hours
Finding new ways to be awed each minute
'Cause the daylight seems to want you
Just as much as I want you
