Before You Close Your Eyes

Just as your eyes are closing
There was something that I meant to say
Like falling from my heart
But I don't know how
Before you close your eyes
I don't know how

I never cry for our love
I never cry
I never cry for our love
I never cry

There's no goodbye
These hands have always lived through mine
Now everything I touch I feel I don't know how
Before you close your eyes
I don't know how

I never cry for our love
I never cry
I never cry for our love
I never cry

I'm so cynical
It's in my face and
It's just the bird I caught
Leaves its taste hanging round, round, round

I never cry
Never cry
I never cry for our love
I never cry

Just as your eyes are closing
There was something that I meant to say
Like falling from my heart
But I don't know how
Before you close your eyes
I don't know how

I never cry for our love
I never cry
I never cry for our love
I never cry

Proud belly (privates)

I'm laying on my back
She climbs over me
Pricks out her nails
Runs them over my proud belly
I'm a tired, hungry bear
Spoiled and sleepy
Her finger's on my zipper
She pulls it down slowly
I'm not ready
Turn over, settle down again
Throw her off
But she's back again
I've been out all night
Get in at dawn
And I've still got honey
Dripping from my claws
I'm a tired, hungry bear
Spoiled and sleepy
Her finger's on my zipper
She pulls it down slowly
I'm not ready
Turn over, settle down again
Throw her off
But she's back again
