The Delmore Effect - Wouldn't You

Wouldn't you upbraid me like a teacher
Wouldn't you improve my sense of metre
Wouldn't you guide me like a missile
Wouldn't you ensconce like a fossil
Wouldn't you forge me like a weapon
Wouldn't you jam up the ignition
Wouldn't you raise me with the wolf cubs
Wouldn't you acknowledge some of my love
Wouldn't you
Wouldn't you
Wouldn't you shoot me into orbit
Wouldn't you watch me fly beyond it
Wouldn't you drape me with some feathers
Wouldn't you hide me in the rafters
Wouldn't you restore me to my glory
Wouldn't you extract the beauty from me
Someone's painted a sky into the ceiling of this chapel
Hundreds of years ago and it's still so beautiful
Wouldn't you show me where the world ends
Wouldn't you throw me off the deep end
Wouldn't you be my voice of reason
Wouldn't you be my fairest season
Wouldn't you make it all so fanciful
Wouldn't you make sure that my cup is full
Wouldn't you wash away my sorrows
Wouldn't you rock me till tomorrow
Seagulls glide across the lake like a wedding dress
Sparrows swoop down beside them to offer some redress
The horizon meets the coastline in a tender kiss
The lifeguard lightly daydreams about a seamstress
Sunburnt maidens clutch daintily to a poultice
A sandcastle washes away as the tide rises
Someone's painted a sky into the ceiling of this chapel
Ahh, someone's painted a sky onto the ceiling of this chapel
Hundreds of years ago and it's still so beautiful
