Intro

Verse

Our bed we live, our bed we sleep

making love and I become you -

flesh is warm with naked feet

stabbing thorns and you become me

oh, I'd beg for you, you know I'll beg for you.

Chorus

pick a song and sing a yellow nectarine

take a bath, I'll drink the water that you leave

if you should die before me, ask if you can bring a friend

pick a flower, hold your breath and drift away...

Verse 2

she holds my hand we share a laugh,

slipping orange blossom breezes -

love is still and sweat remains

a cherished gift unselfish feeling...

oh, I'd beg for you, you know I'll beg for you.

pick a song and sing a yellow nectarine

take a bath, I'll drink the water that you leave

if you should die before me -

ask if you can bring a friend

pick a flower, hold your breath

and drift away...

Verse 3

she tells me things, I listen well

drink the wine and save the water -

skin is smooth, I steal a glance

dragon flies are gliding over...

oh, I'll beg for you - you know I'll beg for you
