Snow Patrol - Crack the Shutters Lyrics
You cool your bedwarm 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 you to stop
And you know it so it doesn’t stop you
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 new 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
And the cold side of the pillow
Your hills and valleys
Are mapped by my intrepid fingers
And in a naked slumber
I dream all this again
