Thirteen Thirtyfive
Strongest taste
Loudest drop
Head is filled
The thought, unlocked
(4x; last line 3x)
You'd be thirteen
I'd be thirty-five
Gone to find a place for us to
Hide
Be together but alone
As the need for it has grown
(2x restarting from the "You'd be Thirteen"-line)
Cha-cha, cha-cha, cha-cha
Cha-cha, cha-cha
A cave or a shed
A car or a bed
A hole in the ground
Or a burial mound
A bush or a tree
Or the Aegean see will do for me
Cha-cha, cha-cha, cha-cha
Cha-cha, cha-cha-haa
I can say that you look pretty
You turn my legs into spaghetti
You set my heart on fire
For you I found a vent
In the bottom of a coal mine
Just enough space for your hands in the inside
If you go
Do let me know
You'd be thirteen
I'd be thirty-five
Gone to find a place for us to hide
A den or a dessert
Perhaps an ink squirt
A cellar, a wishing well, a war
Or a guarantee will do for me
For you I found a cell
On the top floor of a prison
Just enough space for you to fit your feet in
If you go
Do let me know
For you I found a cell
On the top floor of a prison
Just enough space for you to fit your feet in
If you go
Please let me know
I go running with a heart on fire
