David Gray - Stella The Artist lyrics

Stella she gave me a state of grace I'm armour plated 4 inches thick Now all I got was a little taste I'm gibbering like a lunatic Stella the artist Just for now at least you're mine All mine No need to be modest As the daylight creeps Take her hand and reach through time I felt the sting of my own rebuke Come spinning back like a boomerang I swam the sea of psychotic puke Nursing my love like a guilty pang Stella the artist Just for now at least you're mine All mine No need to be modest As the daylight creeps Take her hand and reach You're only saying what they all say You're only saying what they all say It should be more like the old days It should be more like the old days Oh man Stella the artist As the daylight creeps Take her hand and reach through time Stella the artist Just for now at least you're mine All mine No need to be modest As the daylight creeps And the floorboard creaks And your poor heart leaps Take her hand and reach through time
