Keeps singing your name
Sometimes it's like pleasure
Sometimes it's like pain
It's a small voice and quiet
But I hear it plain
There's a bone in my ear
Keeps singing your name
In my heart there's a an image
Like looking through glass
Could be looking at me
Could be looking right past
I don't like it when
I can't tell which is true
But I wouldn't trade the world
For that picture of you
Moon in the water
Cold light in the streets
Warmth in your fingers
Sweat in your sheets
Laid out like an offering
Where two currents meet
The river is dark
But the water is sweet
Wailing on the mountain
Smoke on the wind
Can't drown out the whisper
Or the scent of your skin
Don't know where it came from
But I know where it came
There's a bone in my ear
Keeps singing your name
There's a bone in my ear Keeps singing your name Sometimes it's like pleasure Sometimes it's like pain It's a small voice and quiet But I hear it plain There's a bone in my ear Keeps singing your name In my heart there's a an image Like looking through glass Could be looking at me Could be looking right past I don't like it when I can't tell which is true But I wouldn't trade the world For that picture of you Moon in the water Cold light in the streets Warmth in your fingers Sweat in your sheets Laid out like an offering Where two currents meet The river is dark But the water is sweet Wailing on the mountain Smoke on the wind Can't drown out the whisper Or the scent of your skin Don't know where it came from But I know where it came There's a bone in my ear Keeps singing your name Explain Request ×
