RUFUS WAINWRIGHT LYRICS - Between My Legs

"Between My Legs"



You can go out, dancing

And I'll write about you, dancing without you

And I'll shed a tear between my legs



When you were here, I missed you

Now that you're away, I'm out there without you

And I shed a tear between my legs



Though we live in the same city,

You live in another state far away from me and all of my unfaded charms

But when the rocket ships all fall, and the bridges, they all buckle

And everybody's packing up their station wagons

There's a number you can call, like a breast that you can suckle

And we quietly will exit as it all is happening



Again, I'm afraid of one thing,

Will I walk away from love knowing nothing, wearing my heart between my legs?

But when I know you're naked, lying on the bed while I'm at the piano

All I can say is I can't fake it



When the rocket ships all fall, and the bridges, they all buckle

And everybody's packing up their station wagons

There's a number you can call, like a breast that you can suckle

And we quietly will exit as it all is happening again

'Cause there's a river running underground, underneath the town towards the sea,

That only I know all about

On which from this city we can flee

On which from this city we can flee
