Black Bonnet Silence Lyrics by Kip Winger, Damien Gray

0

[POLLY]
Dearest Father, you'll be glad to know that I'm set up in my new place
[JIM/JACK]
Such a cold night for August, my dear
[POLLY]
Winter comes earlier
Year after year
But it never seems warm round here
[JIM/JACK]
That bonnet you wear
I suspect keeps you warm
It's [?] on the top of your beautiful, beautiful
For you're like the lovliest cave to a man whose never known true love
[JIM/JACK]
I don't remember the last time I was called beautiful
Pеrhaps I could warm you right down to the bone
I know a dark spot
We'll bе completely alone
[JIM/JACK]
You make me want to do things I may regret come morning
[POLLY]
Do what you like but be quiet lest we wake up neighbours
[JIM/JACK]
In moments like these
It's silence I savour
[POLLY]
I'm your princess for the taking
Say
[JIM/JACK]
Take of that bonnet
Your auburn hair falls in strands along your neck
A man could get lost in them
I'm a gentleman so I warn you
I plan to pull your hair
[POLLY]
Rough stuff costs extra
Is that what you like, sir?
[JIM/JACK]
What do I like?
I cherish the silence above all else
In particular, I want people silent
Some talk and talk
But the wise ones know the power of their silence
When they're silent
I take their lives very very quietly
[POLLY]
What does he want from me?
Sir?
[JIM/JACK]
I want your silence forever
And ever
[POLLY]
Dearest Father
Dearest Father
I just write to say you will be
Glad to know I am settled
In my new place
It's a great place inside
With trees and gardens back and front
I hope you are alright
And the boy has work
So goodbye for the present
Yours truly Polly
Yours truly Polly
