go betweens – unkind and unwise lyrics
he was brought up in a house of women
in a city of heat that gave its children
faith in the fable of coral and fish,
told them the world was something to miss.
i turn to hold you, you’re gone.
fingers let go, i’m gone.
that’s just a little unkind
and just a little unwise.
that’s just a little unkind
and just a little unwise.
the salt in the wind moves over the mudflats
sticks to your skin and rusts up the lights,
blows through the ferns that breathe in the dark,
i try to forget but it’s so hard.
i turn to hold you, you’re gone.
fingers let go, i’m gone.
that’s just a little unkind
and just a little unwise.
that’s just a little unkind
and just a little unwise.
what was once is a falling star;
it’ll hit you and hurt you and open your heart.
burn in a river tangled with reeds
while a crane on the water silently feeds.
i turn to hold you, you’re gone.
fingers let go, i’m gone.
that’s just a little unkind
and just a little unwise.
that’s just a little unkind
and just a little unwise.
(repeat till cicadas join in the fun)
