Dm C F
Dm C Am
Dm C
We'd be so less fragile
Am C
If we're made from metal
Dm C
And our hearts from iron
Am C
And our minds from steel
Dm C
And if we built an army
Am C
Full of tender bodies
Dm C
Could we love each other
Am C
Would we stop to feel
Dm c F
And you want three wishes:
Dm C
One to fly the heavens
F
One to swim like fishes
Dm C F
And then one you're saving for a rainy day
E
If your lover ever takes her love away
Dm C F
Dm C Am
You say you want to know her like a lover
And undo her damage, she'll be new again
Soon you'll find that if you try to save her
It will lose her anger
You will never win
And you want three wishes:
You want never bitter
And all delicious
And then one you're saving for a rainy day
If your lover ever takes her love away
You want three wishes:
One to fly the heavens
One to swim like fishes
you want never bitter
And all delicious
And a clean conscience
And all it's blisses
You want one true lover with a thousand kisses
You want soft and gentle and never vicious
And then one you're saving for a rainy day
If your lover ever takes her love away
