Once your eyes were the master
muse to all my songs
cobalt and sea come back to me
I'll never do wrong
Winter would come
and nothing would move
summer's undone with all did I choose
cobalt and sea come back to me
i'll never do you wrong
I was your pearl and I knew that you lied
I was your pearl and I knew that you lied
Lately all I want is you
sometimes I believe I do
fifty strings of yarn and glue
puppet master see me through
lately all I want is you
puppet master see me through
Scissors in hand a knife at my strings
an odd way to go but I seen stranger things
oh I grew the finest wings
over the water
And on my old menagerie
a bottle that you made stood me
cobalt and sea
come back to me
I'll never do you wrong
I was your pearl
and I knew that you lied
I was your pearl
and I knew that you lied
Lately all I want is you
sometimes I believe I do
fifty strings of yarn and glue
puppet master see me through
lately all I want is you
puppet master see me through
