The Green Pajamas

Dying To Love You

Sunset burns the sky with red
Trying to remember what my lover said
Put in my pocket, stuff it in a sack
I'm climbing up the mountain, never comming back
she's dying to love you 
She's trying to shove you
Over the edge
She's dying to love you
She's lying above you
Now she is dead

Sunrise lights up pale and cold
Trying to recall everything I've been told
My head is cracking open and my veins are stiff
Take it from my pocket, toss it off the cliff
she's dying to love you 
She's trying to shove you
Over the edge
She's dying to love you
She's lying above you
Now she is dead

My friend walks in the house, he doesn't even knock
No one says a word, it's way too late for talk
I'm sitting on the sofa going nowhere fast
My lover is in the bedroom trying to make it last
she's dying to love you 
She's trying to shove you
Over the edge
She's dying to love you
She's lying above you
Now she is dead

Now she is dead
Dead, dead, dead
