lyrics

Now you've told yourself it's about time
To let your wandering eye rest
And it lands on the prettiest of smiles, oh boy
What a choice, she's gonna put you to the test

Well first she'll insult your mustache
You'll lean in and she'll just lean away
She'll bite you til you bleed when you kiss her
Yet you love her more each passing day

You think she's the kind who'd speak her mind
A slanted word is more her style
You may think you've cracked her sarcasm code
But you'll burn from the fire in her smile

There's a devil
On her shoulder who whispers in her ear
"Don't you ever fall in love"
With that call she'll disappear

She's the fiercest of cynics
From the pessimism pages that she's read
And the certainty of death
Ain't what you want to think about in bed

It's like dragging a dead crow
Behind you on a string
It don't make no sense
But something about it's dark and appealing
And if morbid metaphors
Still won't deter
She's got you good
You might be done for

You've learned to love between
The shadow and the soul
Where a hand to hold is worth more than gold
And how I love you green

So when your eye has fallen
She'll hold out her green hand
And pull you deep, most joyful breath
Your final on dry land
Your final on dry land
