The Collector Songtext

von Cathy Davey

All mine, when the body wakes up
All mine, when the body falls down
You won't sleep when you lie with me
Knuckle and bone come rattle at the window
All mine, gall and liver
All mine, bony rib and marrow
All the dreams you long to keep
Were part of the deal when you came to borrow

The collector is collecting
And delivering to me
Oh, you think we've got it all
But there's no guarantee
All mine, all mine

All mine, the song your mother wrote you
All mine, everything of value
All hope you lay aside
Saved for the day no hope lies in you
All mine, joy and libido
Mine mine, plans for tomorrow
The heart you smuggled away
That beat so fast when we did our little handshake

The collector is collecting
And delivering to me
Oh, you think we've got it all
But there's no guarantee
All mine, all mine

You won't sleep when you lie with me
Body will be gone but the mind won't follow
This heart you long to keep
Knuckle and bone come rattle at the window
