Beautiful Blue Lyrics

How many times have you opened up this skull



With your delicate stone



And laughed while my blood splashes



Down to the ground



She drinks me up like a parched old bone



I curse you for the pain



And thank you for making me whole again







(chorus)



I am hopelessly



Shamelessly 



Anointed with you



There's no escaping 



Your beautiful blue







The wind blows hot on my flesh



Scented with jasmine and roses



Ringing with bells



And the flutter of a hummingbird



You go to speak



But the wind blows away your words



And from your sweet mouth



So many beautiful colours swirl







(chorus)







Into your blood stained hands



A white eagle feather descends 



And all creation sings 



And I am remembering







(chorus)
