Los Campesinos! - Light Leaves, Dark Sees pt. I

We need a dog on a leash as a place to start
I need a heart on a lease for you to rip apart
A hand on skin that's so smooth like on blocks of ice
Not saying you're cold, no baby it feels just right
(Light leaves)

My Eyes like corks into bottles that overflow
The wine cascades down my neck like a waterfall
I'm like a dog on my knees as I lap you up
You are the beauty and beast, I get all the luck
(Dark sees)

And when I kiss your chest in the morning
The simple things are the hardest to say
How the most heartfelt declarations can seem like century old cliche
A piece of paper, said "write nice words about me here"
Well one hundred puppies would not have nothing on you
They got nothing on me

(Light leaves)
I want you here as naked as a Christmas tree
Left up until the second week of February
It's like my hand in your hair was just meant to be
You are my angel now come sit atop of me
(Dark sees)

When light leaves, the dark sees just what it's like to feel love,
Just what it's like to feel loved
