---------------
Kiss the nape, of my back
And lay me down in the silence.
I like the way you take me out
Halfway in, turns to violence.
I love you
Young blind and dumb
And you love me
Upside and down
Still darling, still we can be 17
Feels like the day, that we met
The bite of frost, on the sidewalk
The morning glare, the nervous calm
The need to touch, the fear to talk
Oh I love you
Young blind and dumb
And you love me
Upside and down
Love you, young blind and dumb
And you love me, upside and down
Still darling, still we can be 17
Grandfather talks, fire pops
The floor creaks, in a chorus
How was your day? I missed your face
But I light up when that door opens
I hate Wisconsin; the heater's broken
I miss my home on the Pacific
But I'll push through it, we all get homesick
But this is home now, 'cause you're in it.
And I love you
You love me
I love you, young blind and dumb
And you love, me upside and down
Love you, young blind and dumb
And you love me, upside and down
Still darling, still we can be
Still darling, we can be seventeen.
