Nights alone by your side”

With a sleight of his hand
Running far, running fast to the dead
He took of all their clothes for them
He put a cloth on their lips
Quiet hands, quiet kiss

Look beneath the floorboards
For the secrets I have hid”

We're just friends”

The question that you should say "yes" to
Once in your life
Maybe tonight I've got a question for you

I've got a question for you.”

Enjoy!
