Rufus Wainwright - Greek Song lyrics

You who were born with the sun above your shoulders,

You turn me on, you turn me on, you have to know

You who were born where the sun she keeps her distance,

You turn me on, you turn me on, but so does she

You who were born there where beauty is existence,

You turn me on, you turn me, your body heals my soul

You who were born where you shiver and you shudder,

You turn me on, the girl is gone so come on, let's go

All the pearls of China, fade astride a Volta

Don't sew beelines to anybody's hide,

Save your poison for a lover who is on your side

One way is Rome and the other way is Mecca

On either side, on either side of our motorbike

One way is home and the other way is Papa

On either side, on either side, and prepared to strike

When I get back I will dream in Barnes & Noble's

Oh, leave me here, oh leave where angels fear to tread

When I get back, I will bleed after my beating

Don't leave me here, don't leave me here, I'm scared to death

All the pearls of China, fade astride a Volta

Don't sew beelines to anybody's hide

Save your poison for a lover who is on your side

All the pearls of China, fade astride a Volta

Don't sew beelines to anybody's hide

Save your poison for a lover who is on your side
