Skin and Bones by The Hazies Lyrics

I saw you cryin' as a child
Tryin' to wipe off your tattoo
Little school girl runnin' wild
Just a baby with the blues
You never let your mama see
You send your love from a distance
Yeah you're everything she owns
Mind, body, and soul
Skin and bones

I saw you dancin' in a dream
A thousand colors in your eyes
Valley green and tangerine
Underneath the velvet sky
Hey!
Then I watch you fade away
Into the sun so crystal clear
When you come back from the wild
You just die to read my mind
'Cause I know everything you fear
I give it you everything I own
Mine, body, and soul
Skin and bones
Everything we are, the moon, and sun, and stars
Skin and bones
Alright
Skin and bones
Skin and bones, there's no where to hide
Skin and bones, 'cause I still right through you, yes I do
Some day we'll find out if we're only skin and bones
Baby!
Some day we'll find out
I lit a candle and in your name
I watched you shoot across the night
And as the world went up in flames
I found you lyin' by my
You were lyin' by my side
I gave you everything I own
Mind, body, and soul
Skin and bones
Everything we are
The moon, and sun, and stars
Skin and bones

Oh, you head into the sky
You never think to wonder, wonder why
We're skin and bones
Alright
Just skin and bones
We're just skin and bones
Baby, just skin and bones
Alright
Is  that all we are?
Is  that all we are?
Ah oh ah oh aah aah aah

Whirling and turning and crashing and burning
Hoping and tripping and praying and screaming
And diving and drifting
If you'd only listen
Some day we'll find out if we're only skin and bones
Is that all we are?
Is that all we are?
Now listen to me
Some day we'll find out
