lyrics

Pantomimes, things you'd never call lies
It was an inside plan for eventual demise
And the gatekeeper sank when his heart fossilized
He found the treasure first, but his boat capsized
Found Saharan sands in her iPhone hands
Left the coffee-stained map for the next couple plans
Left her diamonds there, so she'd know she'd have friends
If she ever weathers the storm
Whoa...

Oh can you take it real slow
I want you crawling back for more
Oh can you take it real slow
I need you crawling back for more

Sun-drenched thighs and an apple-pie guise
She had the fog baptized to keep her thoughts organized
And the dust grew thick on her faded Levis
She left her fate to rest with a few fireflies
Found a wiretap on the songs in her mind
Cleared the static to hear her heart's faint reply
And though it all comes back to whether it could belie
The true story of her life

Oh can you take it real slow
I want you crawling back for more
Oh can you take it real slow
I need to taste your heart and soul
Oh can you take it real slow
I want you crawling back for more
Oh can you take it real slow
I want to taste your heart and soul
