RACHAEL YAMAGATA - Elephants lyrics
rate meIf the elephants have past lives yet all destined to always remember <br>It's no wonder how they scream <br>Like you and I they must have some temper <br> <br>And I am dreaming of them on the planes <br>Dirtying up their beds <br>Watching for some sign of rain to cool their hot heads <br> <br>And how dare that you send me that card when I am doing all that I can do <br>You are forcing me to remember when all I want is to just forget you <br> <br>If the tiger shall protect her young then tell me how did you slip by <br>All my instincts have failed me for once <br>I must have somehow slept the whole night <br> <br>And I am dreaming of them with their kill <br>Tearing it all apart <br>Blood dripping from their lips and teeth sinking into heart <br> <br>And how dare that you say you'll call <br>When you know I need some peace of mind <br>If you have to take sides with the animals <br>Won't you do it with one who is kind <br> <br>And if the hawks in the trees need the dead <br>If you're living you don't stand a chance <br>For a time though you share the same bed <br>There are only two ends to this dance <br> <br>You can flee with your wounds just in time or lie there as he feeds <br>Watching yourself ripped to shreds and laughing as you bleed <br> <br>So for those of you falling in love keep it kind <br>Keep it good <br>Keep it right <br>Throw yourself in the midst of danger but keep one eye open at night
