To the Bone

Ah, my little one
This is how it's done
You'll play your part
And I'll play mine

Ah, my little one
This is how it's done
You'll play your part
And I'll play mine

But your love drags me down
Like the clothes when you swim
Down, deeper down, like the roots of old trees
My heart has no home
You've bruised me to the bone

Ah, my little one
It'll be just fine
Your bruise will fade
And your bones didn't break

Ah, my little one
It'll be just fine
Your bruise will fade
And your bones didn't break

But your love drags me down
Like the clothes when you swim
Down, deeper down, like the roots of old trees
I shiver 'cause I'm cold
But you don't wanna know
