Newborn Lyrics

Elbow

I'll be the corpse in your bathtub Useless I'll be as deaf as a post If you hold me like a newborn Newborn Whisper what you feel
My badly strung declaration To you You'll spend the end of your days Gently smiling like a newborn Newborn Whisper what you feel
My badly strung declaration To you You'll spend the end of your days Gently smiling like a newborn Newborn Loves not by degrees
Press your lips To my eyes Taste my tears On your tongue Pull the blinds Play our song Nothings changed Nothing could be wrong
Scream in the night Kick and strike Like a newborn Holdin' me shakin' Awake in the dark
All of these promises Kept and unbroken Tracin' the scars Tracin' the scars
Even and cold As we both become older Your arms bound about me The hush in your voice The warmth of your fingers Entwined around mine In the eve of our lives Never a choice
