White Daisy, Lace Gloves

White Daisy, Lace Gloves - Lael Neale

I learned to write

And how to dress myself up nice

I learned big words

To prove that I was right

I lost the pen

I lost the dress

I lost the fight

I've been learning how to lose

My whole life

June gloom

Since we've been apart

And It's too soon

To run back to your arms

I could go to the graveyard

To find your remains

Steal back your skull white

Cause I miss your face

White daisy lace gloves

Why do I do

I long for you

Why do I

I was born to lose

The bell has rung

The birds have flown

Summers gone

I have taken all that I can hold

June gloom

Since we've been apart

It's too soon

To run back to your arms

White daisy lace gloves

Why do I do

Long for you

Why do I

I was born to lose

Let loose the daisies

Let loose the skull

Light as a baby

My baby has gone

My baby has gone

My baby has gone

My baby has gone
