Suzanne Vega - Birth-Day (Love Made Real) lyrics

this pain will go

step through all that's left to feel

I wait to meet my love made real

don't move don't touch

don't talk so much

strip and find the place to kneel

I wait to meet my love made real

one thing I know

this day will go

don't touch don't talk crawl the wall

she's the ticket to the future don't listen down the hall

you can say your prayer to the head of this bed

when it begins at your knees and goes right to your head

birth-day

strap me down from wrist to heel

I wait to meet my love made real

one thing I know

this day will go

shake all over like an old sick dog

there's a needle here needle there tremble in the fog

it's a tight squeeze vice grip ice and fire

she's a hot little treasure and the wave goes higher

birth-day

birth-day
