Cut the Rope

Lyrics

She gave me a map for free
 With a layout of the graveyard
 Said time is short, here's my key
 Meet me out back when it gets dark
 Well, I never count on nothing
 But I leave my windows open
 And I'd follow the trail of her loves' scent
 Like a hound dog under the yellow moon
 Because after all, we're falling forward
 Fear is gone, at least for now
 Laugh along at our reflections
 Let's cut the rope and run
 I watched her walk across the fire
 And offer herself to the tide
 She eats her dreams like marmalade now
 And tries to heal herself inside
 She says we are all falling forward
 Falling into the rising sun
 It won't be long before we're long gone
 Let's cut the ropes and run
 It won't be long, it's such a short run
 She laughs and cries at the cuts and scrapes
 Like an actress in an Italian play
 Walks off the fall and sways to a distant rhythm
 She's on the shoreline
 With her face caught in the waves
 Now she's standing at my front door
 She's like a Mona Lisa overdrive
 Fool with a goddess by his side
 In out of the wild blue
 Luckier than I deserve to be
 Guess we're all falling forward
 Falling into the rising sun
 Feeling strong enough to fall down
 Fear is gone, at least for now
 Gonna sing our song up to the streetlights
 To the dirty windows that line our streets
 When morning comes and we haven't slept yet
 Indira sings her siren songs to me
 Cops move us along, but they can't reach us
 Or stop the music that's playing in our heads
 It won't be long before we're long gone
 It's such a short run after all
 Gonna cut the ropes and run
