lyrics

DOMINOES

I’m writing and sending off in the envelope
Saying we could be as tight as buttons in their buttonholes
And you’ll know you’ve been stung and I’ll know
And I’ll know there’s no antidote, there’s no antidote, there’s no antidote

When I come around holding the mistletoe
And carrying a fear, you’ll tell me to let it go
You’ll know I was sent to fall for you
And we’ll fall, fall like dominoes, fall like dominoes, fall like dominoes

Sure as the earth turns slow
And while it’s warm wind blows
People like us fall like dominoes

Ocean and air and laughter for our medicine
When we’re set adrift in the lifeboat that we jettisoned
Out on the rolling sea just like
Two shipwrecked and fallen seraphim
Like two shipwrecked and fallen seraphim

Sure as the earth turns slow
And while it’s warm wind blows
People like us fall like dominoes

We won’t have the cause to distrust our appetities
We’ll be out of reach like two roguish satellites
When we’re powered down and drifting
And drifting into the starry night, into the starry night, into the starry night

Sure as the earth turns slow
And while it’s warm wind blows
People like us fall like dominoes
