| a burden in my hand, |
| a little little lark for me |
| i’ll watch you in the mirror, |
| i’ll tie that tiny dress for you |
| stare across the sheets |
| and these open planes between |
| a burden in your hand, |
| a little little lark for you |
| if all the world would fade, we’d find a home |
| we’d wake up in the dark, we’d find a home |
| a burden in my hand, |
| a little little lark for me |
| i’ll watch you in the mirror, |
| i’ll tie that tiny dress for you |
| stare across the sheets |
| and these open planes between |
| a burden in your hand, |
| a little little lark for you |
| if all the world could fade, we’d find a home |
| you’d wake up in the dark, you’d find a home |
| we built with borrowed letters |
| a plastic little home |
| at the northern edge of alpine street |
| i will keep us holding on |
| i will make it worth the drive across town |
| i could never keep my cool |
| in the fire |
| in the fire |
| a burden in my hand, |
| a little little lark for you |
| i’ll watch you in the mirror, |
| i’ll tie that tiny dress for you |
