lyrics

You are my confidants, comrades, cohorts, cronies, benefactors
I wanna take you out dancing
and there's no abject, deferential thought inside my head

I feel nothing but affection, adulation, lush, and rapture for you
I wanna keep on yearning
honest and sincere, conscientious and legit

I'll give all the blue in the night sky to you darlings
I'll give my walking around money to you darlings
I wanna take you to the opera
here is a corsage and a boutonniere
I'll give all the blue in the night sky to you darlings

I wish, pray, and dream for a lull in your CV
when you are caring for a child
together or apart
repatriated or exiled

and we can keep on tramping and spark it up inside
and illuminate forever and never ever rest
my undefeated darlings transgress, transgress, transgress

Weaver birds give up their nests to you darlings
I'll be there for you each of your family deaths darlings
I want to write your memoir, tribute, and epitath
I'll give you my kidney, bone marrow, and my heart

I'll give all the blue in the night sky to you darlings
(just to see your brightness)
I'll give my walking around money to you darlings
(just to feel your brightness)
I wanna take you to the opera
here is a corsage and a boutonniere
(did you know how much I love you)
I'll give all the blue in the night sky to you darlings
(is a hope that somehow you can share with me your brightness)
