Lyrics Alex Turner

Alex Turner

Glass in the Park

There's glass in the park

Darling, I can't help but keep

Making appointments to sweep

Beneath the climbing frame

If the sun's in your eyes

I'll tighten your blindfold, baby

Don't worry, your foot won't get cut

Strut carelessly

And when you say that you need me tonight

I can't keep my feelings in disguise

The white parts of my eyeballs illuminate

And I'll wait for you

As if I'm waiting for a stone to stop

I've heard them talking

About how I'm gonna put you off

There's glass in the park

And now that I'm up off my knees

I've picked up the speed

To jump your palaces

And I shoot through the night

And suddenly all those once lost

Concoctions froth

And chase the day away

When you say that you need me tonight

I can't keep my feelings in disguise

The white part of my eyeball illuminates

And I'll wait for you

As if I'm waiting for the stone to stop

I've heard them talking

About how I'm gonna put you off

Tell me, how can I put you off

When you're a matter of urgency

I've got a million things that I need to do

But they're all secondary

Make sure you're not followed

And meet me by the death balloon

Paraselene woman

I'm your man in the moon

And like a grain of diamond dust you float

And my devotion's outer crust cracks
