I WANT TO HOLD YOU NOW
music and lyrics by Mark Robinson
Copyright 2007 Smallboy Songs

Moonlight in my face, theres no lights in my place
The keys are just rattling in my hand
I cant see the hole
The door squeaking open, the kitchen bulb broken
Theres nothing but my smell inside and the darkness at all
And furniture lays like some crouching combatants
All whispering secrets in secretive accents
It's cold and it's foreign but full of a warmth gone before

I want to hold you now
Come from behind that door
Break out the streamers and confetti
I want to hold you now
Theres nothing that i need more
Scream out surprise and then come get me

It's quiet at night time, the junk of a lifetime
Explodes in an ambush of sorrow and useless regret
And maybe its boring just constantly drawing
The dark shaky outlines of stuff others seem to forget
But nothing erases the guilt of the sinner
As conscience grows deeper defences grow thinner
No nothing erases but somebody softens the lines

Let me dream

Face up in my headphones, a stillness in my bones
And cobwebs above me and carpet lays under my back
Im floating outside me - a ghost in the gumtrees
When suddenly colour ignites like a flame in the black
And waiting below me are ghost celebrations
My babies, my friends and my closest relations
And seeing you clapping your hands and laugh feels best of all
