Thirst For Romance

Remember me with a smile on my face

replace the tears in your memory with

two heroic arms that twisted lids from jars

and dragged you home after drinking in the park

Remember me with the wind in my sails

replace the night nurse that sits at my bedside

with a whistiling heart, that played piano in the dark

and cheered you every step of the way

I still thirst for romance, I still thirst for romance

and the sand between my toes

darling I, I seen demons dancing, I seen demons dancing

across factory floor

Remember me holding court in Henry's bar

poking holes in the so-called left

buried my mother, father, sister, brother, lover

So why'd they treat me like a child?

I still thirst for romance, I still thirst for romance

and the sand between my toes

darling I, I seen demons dancing, I seen demons dancing

across factory floor

I still thirst for romance and the sand between my toes

darling, I seen demons dancing

across factory

floor
