Carved from the jaw of a whale Cold white warm violin in your arms Hang notes in my hard linen sails Push me back through the eye of a needle Here's to the girl with the flowers at her neck One for the girl with the red dress and wide eyes Bring me a gun in the night Place it gently at my waiting temple Click for the deafening light Push me back through the eye of a needle Here's to the girl with the flowers in her hair Here's to the girl with the incremental eyes One for the girl with the cold and the kleenex Back from the water's edge Sit in our perfect blue space Deep down under the water beneath us Everything fades to your face Fish swarm by in the beautiful silent Here's to the girl with the flowers on her lips Here's to the girl with the devil in her hips One for the girl with the blue coat and suede shoes Carved from the jaw of a whale Back from the water's edge
