Laelia's Song

from demos by Adam Powell

/

lyrics

It takes the tallest type of person
To crawl about my feet
And show me wonder
In the smallness around me
Freaking out so hard
On the living room floor
And laughing afterwards
Just crying out for more
Those days are over
But to me you'll always be
A twisted little heater
Snuggled up to my heartbeat

It's like taking your first two steps
At the ripe old age of three
It's falling in love with everyone to meet
And seeing something in them
They'll never see

Lately
I've been having trouble
Sleeping
Without waking woeful
About
You and the pain that you're in

With legs like little ladders
You're just bound to scale the walls
Of no's and never's
That the experts built so tall
It'll take a little time for me
To figure which is bigger
Your mouth
Your mind
Or your heart
It makes the things
I think are special about you
Feel a little trivial
When every move you make
Is a miracle

Lately
I've been having trouble
Sleeping
Without waking joyful
About
You and and the shape that you're in
