New Song of the Week

The new song of the week is . . . (drumroll please) . . . "Crack the Shutters" by Snow Patrol.

Crack the Shutters by Snow Patrol

You cool your bed
Warm hands down
On the broken radiator
And when you lay them freezing on me
I mumble 'Can you wake me later?'

But I don't really want to stop
And you know it so it doesn't stop there
You run your 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 your face and body

I could sit for hours
Finding ways to be awed 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
In the cold side of the pillow

Your hills and your valleys
And marked by my intrepid fingers
And in a naked slumber
I dream all 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 your face and body

I could sit for hours
Finding ways to be awed each minute
'Cause the daylight seems to want you
Just as much as I want you
