I was slicing up an avocado When you came up behind me With your silent brand new sneakers Your reflection I did not see
It was the hottest day in August And we were heading for the sea For a second my mind started drifting You put your arms around me You put your arms around me You put your arms around me
Blood spraying on the kitchen sink What's this I had time to think I see the tip of my index finger My mind is slowly creating a link
From your mouth speaks your lovely voice The softest words ever spoken "What's broken can always be fixed, and what's fixed will always be broken" You put your arms around me You put your arms around me You put your arms around me
I must have passed out on the porch Dreamt I was carried in a kangaroo's pouch When I wake I'm in the waiting room on a dirty hospital couch
My hand is wrapped in toilet paper And my body is wrapped in the You're sitting next to me reading the paper And put your arm around me You put your arms around me You put your arms around me You put your arms around me
