She Doesn't Sleep With the Covers On Songtext
von The Barr Brothers

Try taking a hexagon
A stained glass medallion
Find a window to hang it on
She′s the light that comes through it
She's a scarlet letter in Avalon
A Mona Lisa in Babylon
She doesn′t f- with just anyone
She doesn't sleep with the covers on

I never thought that I would ever surrender
To that powerful, kinetical love
I always thought that I just better forget it
Than to let it get me to feeling too dumb

But I'm a peanut when she hits the tom drum
Yes, I′m a peanut when she hits the tom drum
And I′ll heed it when she hits the tom drum
I'll repeat it when she hits the tom drum


I know I probably said too much
But love is such a beautiful rush
I hope the day don′t come when the other shoe drops
And the paint runs away with the brush
I know I should probably bite my tongue
But I wanna tell everyone
Before the other shoe drops
And the little dog laughs
And the moon runs away with the sun

Like the lovers in history
Abelard and Heloise
Rivers burn, they turn and run backwards
We all have vulnerabilities
Well, she's a major urban agrarian
Robin Hood and Maid Marion
Little Eva and the Duchess of Malfi
Othello and Desdemona

But I′ll leave it in the sycamore trunk
Yes, I'll leave it in the sycamore trunk
And I′ll repeat it when she hits the tom drum
Yes, I'll heed it when she hits the tom drum


I know I probably said too much
But love is such a beautiful rush
I hope the day don't come when the other shoe drops
And the paint runs away with the brush
I know I should probably bite my tongue
But I wanna tell everyone
If love is so blind
Maybe here in my mind
The moon runs away with the sun
