Little Flaws - Lady Lamb

When we left the diner and walked into the night

I saw by the 24-hour neon light

The freckles on your arm they were a body of stars in the sky

I kept it to myself, I was overwhelmed

But in the morning light when I watched your sleepin' body breathin'

I came to comprehend

I will begin as a pace that builds into a base so

For a short span in the pulsing world of a woman

That when fully realized

A sleek sobbing sculpture will bloom

Little flaws that mimic the stars

And the belief that ours could exist

Some light years away

Some light years apart

Is enough to make me feel faint

That this world brought me to you now

And didn’t wait

'Cause it’s all that I wanna do

To love you, to witness together how buzzing we are

How candied, how calcified, how mesmerized and how small

To share in the cosmic joke, to fall to a thousand floors and laugh

To soar, to take out and soar through the strange things we do

Baby, you’ve got little flaws like me

You try to be hard but I know you’re a softy

I thought you were tough up until you stopped me

From pluckin' that tiny white flower from the earth

Honey, I’ve got little flaws just like you

I’m stubborn and fresh and hot-headed, too, and I

Missed six pitches in the batting cage

I threw my bat in a fit of rage

But it’s all that I want to do

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh

In the dark where we project Varda films on the wall

The red light where we kiss beneath the golden arch

In the city square where we looked through the scope

At Jupiter’s glow and temple off Park

Where we tuck our jeans into our socks and

Move through the pastel pink fields of wheat

Move through the pastel pink fields of wheat

Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm

'Cause it’s all that I want to do

To love you, to witness together how clumsy we are

How candied, how calcified, how mesmerized and how small

To share in the cosmic joke, to fall to a thousand floors and laugh

To soar, to take out and soar through the strange things we do
