My Body Is Changing
(Jewel Kilcher-Steve Poltz)


My body is changing to fit
Itself around your shoe
And my insides are aching
To put themselves inside you
There's not a crevice
Not a crack, not a trace
I can't make myself small enough
To fit in your space

If you come down
If you come down
If you come down
Down off your one-legged horse
Your immortal course
Is making me blue, yeah
You're making me blue, yeah

My limbs are aching
My heart is filled
With growing pains
But you, you are so perfect
A brittle vessel filled with rain
You're like a razor
Like a rock, like a tack
You're pulse is pale
But your humor's so black

If you come down
If you come down
If you come down
Down off your one-legged horse
Your immortal course
Is making me blue, yeah
You're making me blue, yeah

I'm your servant
I'm down on my knees
I will worship you irreverently
Just meet me half way
And I will lay you down
Come towards me, baby

We fit together
Like a couple of spoons
Hope no one opens this velvet drawer
Love is always over too soon

I want to hold you
Forever and fly
Till we're two old flames
Dancing by a dim light

If you just come down
If you come down
Won't you please come down
Down off your one-legged horse
Your immortal course
Is making me blue, yeah
You're making me blue, yeah

My body is changing
To fit itself around your shoe
