Day In and Night Out

from Tiger Tattoo by Andrew Calhoun

/

lyrics

Teach my poor body to hold you
Teach my faltering fingers to feel you
Teach me to love you, and I'll love you more
Than you have been loved before

I will comb your hair, I will wash your feet
I will hold to the place where our destinies meet
By the side of the river, with a bee in my shoe
I will wait for you, I will wait for you
Day in and night out,
Though I suffer within
And I suffer without

I was not born for you, you were not born for me
We were born for ourselves, and we're both of us free
To see everything that the waterbug sees
To follow our passion anywhere that we please
Day in and night out
Though we suffer within
And we suffer without

If I were in heaven, and you were in hell
I know very well
I could eat my pride
And I'd stand by your side
And I'd burn by your side
Day in and night out
Though you suffer within
And you suffer without
