Sophie B. Hawkins - Your Tongue Like The Sun In My Mouth
I met a woman from another time
I couldn¡¯t think
But a drink from her eyes
Was like water to wine
She wet my dreams with her distinctive mind
I search the desert for a treasure
And a measure of life denied
I¡¯m driven by cars and guitars and her voice
Ripping up and down my spine
And now I¡¯m giving my life for her sight
To be mine
And in her presence
My fate unwinds
For when her essence
Draws me too near
I can taste her with tears
On my tongue
Like the sun
In my mouth.
I met a man who kicked my front door down
He blew in with the Santa Ana winds
And a half cocked hound
He fits my body like a one horse town
And I was drunk like a vagabond on his street
And I lay face down
And I rode his joy like a child on a merry-go-round
I was young in his eyes
I was sweet on his thighs
I was profound
I was shot like a free bird in flight
To the ground.
I woke this morning from a deadly dream
He was my lover he was my filler
He was my chocolate-colored killer
He was me
I¡¯m built to run
My will is to deceive
But you penetrate severely
I am walking insecurely
On my knees
And I will wait through Winter, Spring and Summer
If you¡¯ll Fall in love with me
I will dance so slowly
You will hardly know I
Breathe
From Rome
To Madrid
To Paris
On the breeze
My scent will find you
Lost by degrees
From time to time you¡¯ll
Sing
With my lips
Or my hands
On your hips
Or my tongue
Like the sun
In your mouth

As I Lay Me Down
Bare The Weight Of Me
Before I Walk On Fire
California Here I Come
Carry Me
Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover
Did We Not Choose Each Other
Don't Don't Tell Me No
Don't Stop Swaying
Help Me Breathe
