lyrics

on the back of her motorcycle
arms tied in knots around her chest
you're sentimental
up against this airport nation
tarmac bruised limbs
gentle summer winds
honorary like the movies
gather around protect against the wind
your opened ashes
turned out in ceremonies
drinks are on 'til ten
gentle summer friend

your hair blows straight inside these winds
awful how you kept her company

open up your passport feelings
postcards and trademark open ends
her wired heart strings
brass bands an wedding bands
her gold i love you rings
passed amongst your friends

pretend you're sleeping when you're found
and awful how you kept her company

on the back of her motorcycle
arms tied in knots around her chest
