Robyn Hitchcock - If You Were a Priest lyrics

If you were a priest I would wait at least Up unto confession time and Crawl into your box Breathing like a fox Hunting for obsession time and I've thrown a lot of time away to be with you So please don't lock away your eyes If you were a nun I would surely run Way down to the hospital and Cover all your charts With decorated hearts A palpitating ritual and I've spent a lot of time on this to be like you So please don't lock away your eyes If you were a ghost I would treasure most Time I never spent with you and Wander through your head The words I never said Till I knew what I meant to you and I've sent a lot of time on this to be with you So please don't lock away your eyes

So please don't lock away your eyes (away your eyes) So please don't lock away your eyes (away your eyes) So please don't lock away your eyes So please don't lock away your eyes (away your eyes) So please don't lock away your eyes So please don't lock away your eyes (away your eyes) So please don't lock away your eyes So please don't lock away your eyes So please don't lock away your eyes (away your eyes) So please don't lock away your eyes So please don't lock away your eyes So please don't lock away your eyes (away your eyes) So please don't lock away your eyes So please don't lock away your eyes So please don't lock away your eyes (away your eyes) So please don't lock away your eyes
