Song for a Clock

Last night we just fell into bed
 And let the poison drain out of our head
 Before the sun strikes shade across the back of your bare legs we'll be sleepin'
 Heavy with love instead
 Heavy with love instead
 Be still, be still please
 Oh i just want everything to freeze
 Those skinny little arms are a windmill
 We all tumble forward like a crooked old wheel, i know
 I know, but tonight be still
 Please be still
 This mornin' i was made aware
 As i tried to cut the back of my hair
 Of the first mosquito of the year
 Buzzin' down the surface of the mirror
 Like winter never happened and another summer's near
 But i just want to keep the calendar here
 Be still, be still please
 Oh i just want this frame to freeze
 Those skinny little arms are a windmill
 And we all tumble forward like a crooked old wheel, i know
 I know, but today be still
 Please be still
