Corinna Rose - Fresher Fruit lyrics

If my name and his name have got your tongue in knots What else of me have you not forgot? Is my face still fresh or has it wavered? Your silent slips as you sweetly savour Fresher fruit that has not come to rot If you closed your eyes and felt each of our palms To which hand would your tender touch belong Would your fingers scream out “Lover!” “Stranger!” If they called your lips to lend a favour? Would either tango's tempo taste so wrong I found peace since you bolted up your door My dreams have long ceased to find us tumbling on the floor We've moved on to fresh arms that keep us warm But you can't keep straight Our names and voices and kisses and faces Guess time obscures but never erases The bonds we build and we break and we bury in vain So keep me tied, taught, tightly between your teeth That wicked word of love's obsurd bequeath ‘Cause habits they die hard if ever Despite your best attempts to sever Stubborn roots still tangled down beneath
