Cool Dry Place

Just another episode of tenderness

In a long, long string of similar events

Like a chain or whip around my neck

That's the only part I want, you say

Can I come over?

Is it too late?

Would you keep me

Keep me in a cool, dry place?

With my head on your shoulders

Not too much weight

Would you keep me

Keep me in a cool, dry place?

And with all my extra rods and cones I see

That the rhythm's more important than the melody

Ten segments in an orange

Only so many ways that you can pull apart someone

Can I come over?

Is it too late?

Would you keep me

Keep me in a cool, dry place?

With my head on your shoulders

Not too much weight

Would you keep me

Keep me in a cool, dry place?

And once the dust has settled, then you'll know

That you're gonna get more of me than you bargained for

All the ways we can go wrong

Will we ever get that far?

Can I come over?

Is it too late?

Would you keep me

Keep me in a cool, dry place?

With my head on your shoulders

Not too much weight

Would you keep me

Keep me in a cool, dry place?

Can I come over?

Is it too late?

Would you keep me

Keep me in a cool, dry place?

With my head on your shoulders

Not too much weight

Would you keep me

Keep me in a cool, dry place?
