Kissing Things Lyrics by Sarah Cracknell

Hyacinths and Thistles

2000

[Verse]
It was a shallow ocean
It was a very blue sky
They're not too wide to get around
Given the old school try
[Refrain]
And you must have had nothing better to do
I've been kissing my cigarette, wishing it was you
[Verse]
True, you gave me the moon
And the silver stars
They float outside the window
Of this tedious bar
[Refrain]
And just like their master, they just drift in the blue
I've been kissing the bottle, wishing it was you
[Verse]
So Gibraltar has tumbled
The world came to an end
And the joke was on me
You're not even my friend
[Refrain]
But with all my new lovers, and there've been twenty-two
I've been kissing the mirror, wishing it was you
[Outtro]
Wishing it was you
Wishing it was you
Wishing it was you
