It's probably now that I need you the most
When I'm one half child and the other ghost
And one of 'em wants to pull you close
And the other to let you go

But time's criminal love heart won
And love defies everyone inside my skin,
A skeleton is warming up his act

My body's my dog and my friend doesn't bite
Though he looks severe and erudite
And a hundred degrees Fahrenheit
Is as cool as an ermine

If one of these is a poison cup
And my acceptance seems abrupt
But if you're gonna line 'em up,
Well I have to knock 'em down

Well there's nothing so wrong
That what's right can't fix
Despite how blood and water mix
And when a pony runs out of tricks
Then his work has just begun

The lord duty made me fat
Just a lonely impulse of delight
And balancing had brought to mind
The years to come, the years behind
Will I grow weary of the sun,
Remembering what I have done with old mythologies?

You gotta choose
You wanted the song to rescue us
Amy, what did you leave for us?
So we could get home

Solomon sang to Sheba's grace
And he kissed her soft and silken face
If one of us has to leave this place,
Will the other come along?

We been on the round and round
Shared our kisses by the pound
And chased our shadows on the ground
And spilled our cups in China town
Put up the moon, took down the sun
Played our songs for everyone
Remembering what we had done with old mythologies

You gotta choose
You wanted the song to rescue us
Amy, what did you leave for us?
So we could get home
So we could get home
