Gonna make this crystal sing
Otherwise, we're just going backward
Gonna make this songbird sing
Get a load, get a load of it
For the one that's listening
Sound advice, sound advice
Empty hands and tired eyes
Little arms on a big body
And I hold you to the light to see
And keep you safe inside of me
I want nothing tonight to hold but you
I keep this pillow, it's such a poor substitute
Tear the tear, and fold the fold
Pick it up when it's yours to hold
When you hit the ground just roll
Bend your knees, bend your knees
Bend your knees when you're lifting these
And I hold you to the light to see
And cotton wool you safe in me
I want nothing tonight to hold but you
Keep close the cold compress, such a poor substitute
