Delicate Thing
It's a walk in the park, it's a shot in the dark, it's a scorpion's sting
As a ship in the night needs a beacon of a light, such a delicate thing
It's a slip of the toungue, it's a bird in a hand, a hand on a gun
It's it's the coming of spring, it's the end of the line, such a delicate thing
Oh beautiful girl, delicate figure in a merciless world, but it's alright
It's a beast you can't kill a void you can't fill, a game you can't win
It's a love you can't make, a spell you can't break, a door that won't let you in
It's a thing you can't hide, it's the sorrow inside, such a delicate thing
Oh beautiful girl, delicate figure in a merciless world, but it's alright
Such a beautiful face, delicate creature in a dangerous place, but it's alright
Like a fire in the hole, something out of control, hidden under the wing
Another freudian slip, another crack of the whip, such a delicate thing
Oh beautiful girl, delicate figure in a merciless world, but it's alright
Such a beautiful face, delicate creature in a dangerous place, but it's alright
