across the sea
|
You are 18 year old girl who live in small city of Japan
|
And you heard me on the radio about one year ago
|
And you wanted to know all about me and my hobbies
|
My favorite food and my birthday
|
|
Why are you so far away from me?
|
I need help and you're way across the sea
|
I could never touch you - I think it would be wrong
|
But I've got your letter and you've got my song
|
|
They don't make stationery like this where I'm from - so fragile so refined
|
So I sniff and I lick your envelope and fall to little pieces every time
|
I wonder what clothes you wear to school; I wonder how you decorate your room
|
I wonder how you touch yourself and curse myself for being across the sea
|
|
At 10 I shaved my head and tried to be a monk
|
I thought the older women would like me if I did
|
You see, ma, I'm a good little boy
|
It's all your fault, momma, it's all your fault
|
|
Goddamn, this business is really lame
|
I gotta live on an island to find the juice
|
So you send me your love from all around the world
|
As if I could live on words and dreams and a million screams
|
Oh how I need a hand in mine, to feel
|
|
