I have been stripped of a layer of meaning
I fell through the floor, watched you rise through the ceiling
She's so high, higher than thought can think
A mere sprite, like one of the nubilate, so hold tight
She radiates light from her jokes, it's what men prefer
They need the centre of things
The centre of things
I watched them packing up all Sunday morning
The day of the fourth and they fled without warning
It's so bright, the sun almost burns your eyes
A cruel fight, I feel I can sympathise famine
It pours over boiling words, it's more than we deserve
Love is a beautiful curse
A beautiful curse

She said "I'm stained like a girl from the bowrie"
I pay my respects to her hourly
I'm just so clumsy and circumspect, never know what it meant
Perhaps it was heaven sent
She's so high, this kitten on gasoline
And codeine, fuelled by her medicine
She lies back
"Handsome" she says again "You've always been my friend
Lord, it's the loveliest day
The loveliest day"

I have been stripped of a layer of meaning
I fell through the floor, watched you fly through the ceiling
And I find, you're finer than porcelain
Or bromide on silver gelatin in blue sky
She's carried by seraphim, aptly named vallium
Into the arms of the night
The arms of the night
