Lyrics for Sappho's Poems

Run away to arrow's end And from off the fire again Are you aware of my plan As you lay down in the sun? Your eyes are razor blades My years are wasting away Saw you wait in the shadow's light Saw you wait in the hotel tonight Your eyes are razor blades My years are wasting away
