Pinky in the Daylight by Tindersticks Lyrics

With your lip between your nails too
Your hair pinned and falling down
With your elbows extending
I follow the shape of your brow

And there's a new kind of beauty
That I've never seen before
In the flickering of a candle
With paint on my brow

Pinky in the daylight
Crimson at night
How I love you
(Yeah, I love you)

Pinky in the daylight
Crimson at night
How I love you
(Yeah, I love you)

Silvery in the moonlight
Like dusk on the sea
Standing at your shoreline
An ocean at my feet
And in that moment I am ready
I am humbled and I am free
And I can feel all those colours, baby
Pour back into me

Pinky in the daylight
Crimson at night
How I love you
(Yeah, I love you)

Pinky in the daylight
Crimson at night
How I love you
(Yeah, I love you)

And in those times when I was blinded
Colours faded away
Bleached by my own sadness
I was slipping into that grey
(But now I see)

Pinky in the daylight
Crimson at night
Yeah, I love you
(Yeah, I love you)
Pinky in the daylight
Crimson at night
How I love you
(Yeah, I love you)

Pinky in the daylight
Crimson at night
How I love you
(Yeah, I love you)

Pinky in the daylight
Crimson at night
Yup, I love you
(Yeah, I love you)

Yeah, I love you
Yeah, he loves you
