[Verse 1] You shed your shell Like the cicada leaves his past behind You loved me into slumber And you left with the Summer [Chorus] Boy, you left me with the shell Of a body's, in a knot Hollow as a bell Baby, can't you tell? That flesh will start to grow And fill our empty cages well [Verse 2] I rested my knuckles in your palms Putting closer your tender arms For tonight only we share a pillow [Chorus] Boy, you left me with the shell Of a body's, in a knot Hollow as a bell Baby, can't you tell? That flesh will start to grow And fill our empty cages well [Post-Chorus] You left me with the spoon You left me with the bowl You left me with the remnants of a perfect hole You left me with the shake A kiss you'll never stow [Chorus] Boy, you left me with the shell Of a body's, in a knot Hollow as a bell Baby, can't you tell? That flesh will start to grow And fill our empty cages well [Post-Chorus] You left me with the spoon You left me with the bowl You left me with the remnants of a perfect hole You left me with the shake A kiss you'll never stow [Post-Chorus] You left me with the spoon You left me with the bowl You left me with the remnants of a perfect hole You left me with the shake A kiss you'll never stow
