Come Back As You

from To The Place Is Home by Silver Sircus

lyrics

Oh my God you're beautiful, wonderful
Oh my God you're beautiful, wonderful

When I die I want to come back as you
That's a stupid thing to say, I know that's not possible
But how I wonder what may be
Because Oh God, you're beautiful

Oh my God you're beautiful, wonderful
Oh my God you're beautiful, wonderful

What if they scattered my ashes on the ground beneath your feet?
Then maybe you'd get down and you'd pick out some seed or some weed or something,
and then I would be the earth beneath your fingernails
Oh God, how beautiful

Then maybe you'd brush a lock of hair out of your eyes and you'd leave a trace of me on your face,
Then I would be the earth resting on your skin
I'd roll down you in a bead of sweat and maybe I'd make it to your mouth
Oh God, how beautiful

It'd be so hot you'd have to take a drink of water eventually and then maybe,
Maybe you'd lick your lips and you'd swallow me down,
Swallow me down, swallow me down, swallow me down

Then I would have finally come back as you
Then I would have finally, then I would have finally come back as you

Oh my God I'd be beautiful, wonderful
Oh my God I'd be beautiful, wonderful
