Mine, immaculate dream, made breath and skin,
I’ve been waiting for you,
Signed, with a home tattoo, Happy birthday to you
was created for you.
(Can’t ever keep from falling apart.. At the seams)
(Can’t I believe you’re taking my heart.. to pieces)
Ahh, it’ll take a little time, might take a little crime to come undone
Now we’ll try to stay blind, to the hope and fear outside,
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind
And blow me in to cry.
Who do you need?
Who do you love?
When you come undone.
(chorus)
Words, playing me deja vu, Like a radio tune
I swear I’ve heard before,
Chill, is it something real, Or the magic I’m feeding
off your fingers
(Can’t ever keep from falling apart.. at the seams)
(Can I believe you’re taking my heart.. to pieces)
Lost, in a snow filled sky, we’ll make it alright,
to come undone,
Now we’ll try to stay blind, to the hope and fear outside, Hey child, stay wilder than the wind –
And blow me in to cry.
Happy Birthday to you was a reference to Sixteen Candles that Michael Hutchence of INXS and I worked on script ideas for. He wanted to do something for my 16th birthday (1984). I wrote songs for Duran Duran and for INXS, as well as many others. Thanks for posting this, brings back memories.
