Magnificent Gestures - Cate Le Bon

Truly I like to dream

Romance is company

Permeates the concrete graft

Puts my head in a car park

Hold a hand, talk to me

Assume the weight of family

Sell the billboard gallery

She was born with no lips, drip, drip, drips

Hey now

Magnificent gestures

Could hold my love

Could open windows

But the room escapes me

The teachers let go

It’s such a shame

And I’m writing it down

We will have to talk

But I’m writing it down

The room escapes me

And I’m writing it down

Forever be on guard

Forever be on guard

Forever be on guard

Forever be on guard

Forever be on guard

Truly I’m at your feet

Turning cards from memory

Pinball for the royal lip

Her heart is a skip, drip, drip, drip

Drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip

Drip, drip, drip, drip, drip

Time will repeat it

Time will defile

I can’t repeat it

I was born with no lips, drip, drip, drips

Hey now

Magnificent gestures

Could hold my love

Could open windows

But the room escapes me

The teachers let go

It’s such a shame

And I’m writing it down

We will have to talk

Magnificent gestures

And I just feel low

I don’t know why

The mood escapes me

And I’m writing it down

The room escapes me

And I’m writing it down

She has her teacher’s laugh

She has her brother’s eyes

Her eyes
