Hawksley Workman - Your Beauty Must Be Rubbing Off lyrics

Look at those buggers who are looting the crash site

Taking the ring off your sweet little finger

That I gave to you, when we got married

You're under water now, you're back where you came from

No stealing of beauty that would naturally flow

From the center of all that you are, all that you are

And your beauty must be rubbing off

Your beauty must be rubbing off on me

If we had children they'd be lovely and beautiful

And posses a peace and a strength and a depth in their eyes

And a soundness in heart, even as they cry

And we as lovers bloom like lilies in midnight

To taste our bellies before God

We are witness to currents we cannot control, cannot control

And your beauty must be rubbing off

Your beauty must be rubbing off on me

Your beauty must be rubbing off

Your beauty must be rubbing off on me

It's all the faces that you never had, or that you never have

To the shivers you couldn't shake

The planes you didn't make

The hooks that didn't take off at night

In the window as you fight with the curtains

To cover up your nakedness from the neighbour's gaze such a Sweet display

Of nothingness of everything of nevermind

These things are fine the sweet tooth sunset forgets tonight

Cacophony, cacophony

And let me say that you look lovely in all of this

And let me say that the death that I fear

Could in part be a fear that I'd lose you, just as I found you

Your beauty must be rubbing off

Your beauty must be rubbing off on me

Your beauty must be rubbing off

Your beauty must be rubbing off on me

Don't be a stranger to the danger that is kissing you

Don't be a stranger to the danger that is kissing you

Your beauty must be rubbing off

Don't be a stranger to the danger that is kissing you

Don't be a stranger to the danger that is kissing you

Your beauty must be rubbing off

Don't be a stranger to the danger that is kissing you

Don't be a stranger to the danger that is kissing you...
