crack the shutters

Snow Patrol

You cool your bed-warm hands down
on the broken radiator,
And when you laid them freezin' on me,
A mumble can you wake me later.
But I don't really want you to stop,
And you know it so it doesn't stop you,
And runs you hands from my neck to my chest.

Crack the shutters open wide
I want to bathe you in the light of day,
And just watch you as the rays
tangle up around you face and body.
I could sit for hours
finding new ways to be odd each minute,
Cause the daylight seems to want you
just as much as I want you.
It's been minutes it's been days.
It's been all I will remember,
Happy lost in your hair
And the cold side of the pillow.
Your hills and valleys,
are mapped by my intrepid fingers;
And in a naked slumber,
I dream of this again.

Crack the shutters open wide
I want to bathe you in the light of day,
And just watch you as the rays
tangle up around you face and body.
I could sit for hours
finding new ways to be odd each minute,
Cause the daylight seems to want you
just as much as I want you.
