wrap me in satin,
chase me along
nights are growing colder,
and days are long
follow me gently down the corridor
follow me, my friend, and close the door
wrap me in satin,
bind me with love
though times are okay,
they have been tough
counting all my blessings
just seems so overwhelming
I'd rather just be
here are all alone.
wrap me in satin,
and chase me along
swinging on a swing with my moods
wrap me in curtains, and
push me along
it'll all be fine before long, before I know.
before I know you,
I want to be good
I want to talk with you
treat you like I should
recovering from villainy,
oh, dear, it takes time
recovery's not linear,
oh, what is the point to make?
wrap me in satin,
bind me with love
catching my blessings
in a basket I wove
hours and hours sat out by the swing
hours and hours just listening
to the sound
of the birdsong
all around
an unreal pond
to be found
in the universe
as the wild
thing that I am.
wrap me in satin,
chase me along
no one can catch me
this road that I'm on
it will be okay by tomorrow's morn
and by tomorrow I'll have nothing to mourn.
