Temporary Like Achilles

Lyrics for Temporary Like Achilles

Standing on your window, honey Yes, I've been here before Feeling so harmless I'm looking at your second door How come you don't send me no regards? You know I want your lovin' Honey, why are you so hard? Kneeling 'neath your ceiling Yes, I guess I'll be here for a while I'm tryin' to read your portrait But I'm helpless, like a rich man's child How come you send someone out to Have me barred? You know I want your lovin' Honey, why are you so hard? Like a poor fool in his prime Yes, I know you can hear me walk But is your heart made out of stone Or is it lime Or is it just solid rock? Well, I lean into your hallway Lean against your velvet door I watch upon your scorpion Who crawls across your circus floor Just what do you think you have to guard? You know I want your lovin' Honey, but you're so hard Achilles is in your alleyway He don't want me here, he does brag He's pointing to the sky And he's hungry, like a man in drag How come you get someone like him to be your guard? You know I want your lovin' Honey, but you're so hard
